But what does that mean?

In the previous post, I wrote: "the light that can show the way... is in you."

What does that mean?

That statement can be understood only when we learn to embrace each difficulty in our life, each painful experience, as a life lesson, instead of a hindrance. By no longer resisting our painful experiences, and instead, allowing them to be there, we can use our suffering to become free of suffering.

How?

I think that Eckhart Tolle's book The Power of Now has some very valuable ideas on how we can begin to become "students" of life instead of resenting it.

See if this excerpt from the book resonates with you:

What could be more futile, more insane, than to create inner resistance to something that already is? What could be more insane than to oppose life itself, which is now and always now? Surrender to what is. Say 'yes' to life - and see how life suddenly starts working for you rather than against you.

Of course, I have deliberately not directly defined what "the light in you" means. I am not in a position to define it.
