The Paradox of Meditation

"[When we meditate], we often think that somehow we’re going to improve, which is a subtle aggression against who we really are...We can still be timid or jealous or full of feelings of unworthiness. Meditation practice isn’t about trying to throw ourselves away and become something better. It’s about befriending who we are already. The ground of practice is you or me or whoever we are right now, just as we are. That’s what we come to know with tremendous curiosity and interest." ~ Pema Chodron
