The Way of Chuang Tzu
Translated by Thomas Merton



Definition:
Aversion is that which you avoid. Things that make us bored, things we hate, things we are afraid of are all aversions we have.


The Challenge:
We avoid that which makes us uncomfortable, and that "comfort zone" we create is what murders our ambition. The only thing keeping us from realizing our full potential are our aversions. If you have an aversion to dancing, then that is precisely the reason that you MUST go dancing, and you must DO IT NOW. If you hesitate, then you have been murdered by your aversions, again. Each time you die, you are reborn a little bit weaker, until you are a timid shell of the person you once were.


Namaste,
