The Wilderness

To learn to see, to learn to hear, you must do this—go into the wilderness alone. Don Jose quoted by Joan Halifax.

At the level of daily life, there certainly is loss. If we spiritualize it away, we cannot use it to grow. . . . This usually means allowing ourselves to be touched by life, to participate in it. we learn by experience. The unexperienced life does not teach anybody anything. There are no spiritual shortcuts.
