“There were many practices based on subduing, or cutting through the ego. Gradually, I realized this approach did not work well for me and as I began to teach, I saw it often did not work well for students either, especially women. They responded more positively to nurturing their innate wisdom and buddha nature rather than to attempts to cut through their egos. Perhaps because they struggle more with self-esteem and self-hatred, the battle motif turns practice into another way to beat themselves up, another battle among many.” Women S SpiritualityEgo In WomenWomen In Spirituality Book:Feeding Your Demons: Ancient Wisdom for Resolving Inner Conflict Source: Feeding Your Demons: Ancient Wisdom for Resolving Inner Conflict

“Normally we empower our demons by believing they are real and strong in themselves and have the power to destroy us. As we fight against them, they get stronger. But when we acknowledge them by discovering what they really need, and nurture them, our demons release their hold, and we find that they actually do not have power over us. By nurturing the shadow elements of our being with infinite generosity, we can access the state of luminous awareness and undermine ego. By feeding the demons, we resolve conflict and duality, finding our way to unity.” WayNeedsBelieveRealStatesFightingStrongAwarenessConflictEgoElementsFindingsShadowStrongerInfiniteUnityAccessReleaseGenerosityAcknowledgeDemonEmpoweringResolveDiscoveringNurtureFeedingDualityNurturingLuminousOur Demons Author:Tsultrim Allione
