00:00Don't ask why do I suffer? Ask what am I to do with my suffering? Do I beat my chest over it?
00:05Do I cry and complain over it? That's one way. Do I devise a thousand deceitful ways to run away
00:11from it? That's another way. Or do I face it, sit with it, talk to it, embrace it and transcend it?
00:18That's the way. Let's choose it. That's the right way. That's what courage is all about.
00:24The willingness to not only tolerate suffering but actually to inflict suffering upon oneself.
00:31Not needlessly, obviously. Not senselessly, obviously. Knowing fully well that suffering
00:36has the power to purge.
