Stated simply, it is the difference between ignoring your self, making love to yourself, and raping yourself.” IfsTryingSelfAblePainPastGrowsDifferencesFashionMetsLimitsDiseaseYogaGreedCaringHonestlyUnconsciousMaking Love Author:Ken Dychtwald

Without such mercy, we will live our own life in exile.” IfsWayLooksHas BeensPainSufferingCompassionOur LivesSorrowEssentialsFindingsTasksMercyCaughtHonestlyExileWrongdoing Book:Bringing Home the Dharma: Awakening Right Where You Are Source: Bringing Home the Dharma: Awakening Right Where You Are
