Every human being has a limit to what he can bear before
getting triggered. Being triggered is none other than the experience of
confusion, ineptitude, and ineffective reaction. This is the only cause of
suffering. Our evolutionary process, by design, requires these triggers, in
order to show us points of ignorance within us that require greater awareness.
To heal, to grow, or to evolve means to become aware enough to expand our perception
of what’s really going on, and thus correct our course of action, thereby
removing the cause of our suffering.
Instead, many of us react to our limited beliefs, which are
distorted by our unawareness of the true, whole situation. When our view is
true (or whole enough to see what is relevant) our actions no longer attempt to
address the illusory circumstances that come from a partial view of reality.
Our ‘true’ actions, unaffected by our former distortions, can’t help but be
effective in removing the suffering, while serving the greater good and
bringing happiness to all around us.
