1
So compassion hurts.
2
I've always thought that compassion is actually sounds kind of uh sweet
3
and so forth but actually it's very very painful
4
because it means being so empathetic with with others that you
5
that you can stand in their shoes to the degree that that you're willing to do anything to help them, you know.
6
Now, I want to ask you a question, Anipema, because I've noticed this in my own experience, and I hear this a lot from people.
7
Come closer to that queasy feeling.
8
Okay, I'm doing it more and more.
9
I'm tender more and more of the time I don't have all the same defenses
10
that I used to have all the same armoring
11
and quite honestly I'm tender
12
and on the verge of tears a lot I feel a
13
lot more I feel uncomfortable a lot of the time it
14
almost feels like something's not quite going in the right direction and I vulnerable to the point of,
15
well, say more, intense, frequent situation of raw, tender vulnerability.
16
It's like, it seems like it's that way a lot and it's very intense.
17
Like, oh, wow, you're feeling a lot.
18
You're taking in a lot.
19
You've become so porous.
20
I'm talking to myself here, you know, and you feel so much of this pain and exquisite beauty and everything.
21
And in a way, it seemed more, quote -unquote, functional in a certain way before doing all of this meditation.
22
Well, you see, I'm not hearing that there's anything wrong there.
23
What you're describing sounds like the only, say, if you were a meditation student or something,
24
the only thing I would say is extend tenderness towards whatever resistance there is to feeling those things you know
25
that one can live from that place definitely one can live from
26
that place and with a feeling of joy
27
and like let's let's maybe I'm digressing a little bit let's just talk about the word compassion
28
so compassion hurts I've always thought that compassion is actually sounds kind of sweet
29
and sure forth but actually it's very very painful
30
because it means being so empathetic with with others that you
31
that you can stand in their shoes to the degree
32
that you're you're willing to do anything to to help them you know
33
and um but as i've often said it's not a relationship up down relationship
34
but a relationship with equals so my feeling about compassion is even though it hurts
35
which it definitely does
36
and this goes along with your question nevertheless it's what brings
37
life meaning it's what brings life a sense the feeling of
38
interconnectedness love comes along with it you know it's like saying it hurts
39
that my heart is getting bigger you know
40
so it's worth hurting you know for your heart to get bigger i would say you could say it hurts
41
that mine that i have a more or open mind.
42
It was more comfortable to have fixed opinions and be some kind of fundamentalist.
43
That was a lot more comfortable, really.
44
But actually the anxiety increases, this underlying sense of something being wrong,
45
of being unhappy, to being isolated and separate
46
and feeling all those very miserable feelings
47
that we as human beings feel a lot you know i don't think
48
that compassion or this rawness or anything is like
49
that i think it's like in
50
that place you you become more in love with the world
51
or love in love with people but it isn't
52
that it's i don't know it's not that it's comfortable it's
53
that it's interconnected and that there has a lot of love in your heart and your mind are expanding.
54
So for me personally, and I think this must be a popular idea
55
because it seems that people like to hear it from, you know, hear about it.
56
I feel like that's, I will die with no regrets because I'm so much, my heart and mind are so much,
57
have expanded so much from the time that I was a young person.
58
I wanted to ask you about that, this notion of dying without regret.
59
Yeah.
60
Because…
61
you know i'm sure in your life like in all of our lives there are things
62
that we wished we had done differently in xyz situation
63
and you know i'm curious how you've made peace with those
64
experiences personally oh yeah that's that's a very good question
65
so i do have some real regrets you know i mean
66
in terms of as you say wishing i had done things differently
67
but um And so it's very much like the 12 steps, you know.
68
I mean, really, the similarity is very strong.
69
That you make a fearless inventory of all the things that you regret or wish you hadn't done.
70
And they're right out in the open.
71
They're not hidden.
72
And then the next step is that you share that with somebody.
73
So that it's, first it's not hidden from you
74
and then you're not embarrassed or ashamed to have somebody else hear about it.
75
So, you know, that's really the approach.
76
In the monastic tradition,
77
we have this twice a month ceremony where you do a fearless inventory of the last two weeks
78
or you could go back and back and back.
79
And what it said is if you share, if you bring it out, if it's in the light, you can dwell at peace.
80
But if it's hidden and it's a secret and from yourself first, and then you know about it, but you keep it secret from others,
81
you do not so dwell.
82
You know, if acknowledged, you can lay it aside and dwell at peace.
83
And if not acknowledged, I cannot so dwell.
84
So that's certainly how I've worked with it.
85
But getting back to the other question, it doesn't mean that when the memory comes up there isn't this little feeling.
86
It means that it doesn't, well, here's another thing.
87
It doesn't have any spin -off.
88
So I've been talking about this quite a lot lately, and it goes along with all the questions you've been asking.
89
You can feel what you feel as a direct, just as if you put your hand,
90
I used this image just the other day.
91
If you put your finger on the burner and it hurt, so that's the analogy for any kind of pain.
92
So that's it.
93
It hurts, but it doesn't have any spin -off.
94
It doesn't have a storyline, the ripples don't go out and out and out and out.
95
You stay with the tenderness and receptivity to the kind of like origin of it all, you know?
96
It's very helpful.
97
This word spinoff is very helpful because, you know, the judgment and all of that is all spinoff.
98
I call it add -ons too, which comes from Sharon Salzberg yeah but um so so that
99
that of course is a practice and something
100
that we get better at through meditation also
101
but uh i think it's really helpful that it's it pain is pain
102
and pleasure is pleasure you know neutral is neutral and stuff
103
but but it can be just
104
that simple the the expression just as it is you know without the spin -off without the spin -off
105
so what happens in actual fact is you do start spinning off you know
106
when something's really intense like uh betrayal say you know it's
107
very hard to not the mind just will keep coming back keep coming back
108
but then in some as gently and everything
109
and non -judgmentally as you can you just keep coming back to the the the what the origin
110
or something like that right discover on -demand videos

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
