We read and discussed a chapter titled A Bigger Container from Charlotte Joko Beck's book, Everyday Zen: Love and Work. She writes:
We can talk about "oneness" until the cows come home. But how do we actually separate ourselves from others? How? The pride out of which anger is born is what separates us. And the solution is a practice in which we experience this separating emotion as a definite bodily state. When we do, A Bigger Container is created.
Beck's insightful and direct writing led us into a lively conversation, shedding light and opening doors.
