Plenty of, dare I say it, positive comments. Where have all the "think-positive" adherents scuttled off to? Perhaps they are detoxing from the negativity.
Anyway, well said. One deep problem about any doctrine that says "think only X" is that it hides the full spectrum of experiences. Once one limits one's experiences, then one is easy to indoctrinate - then the way out becomes harder.
I often use the analogy that the next mountain peak can only be reached by first going down into the valley.
As to your query, mate - It takes time.
It takes time.
But we are patient, are we not?
Yes, patience - unless it becomes... lethargy!
However, gaining experiences, the "fruits" of a different philosophy, can lead to confidence in the path.
