#platform/youtube #channel/bodhi-light  Affliction is like a boyfriend. You drop them and they keep on coming back. Here's what happens to us. It's a process we teach you where you see an affliction instead of trying to understand why like ordinary people do. Why am I so afflicted? Why? Why? Why? You don't need to understand why. You just need to be convinced that being afflicted is not good for you. That's all you need to know. And therefore, you said I don't want to be like this. So you drop the affliction every time it happens. You drop it. We tell you what very simple recipe but actually there's a strategy behind it. What happens in your mind? You say I don't want to be afflicted. Forget it. I don't want to be afflicted. Period. And pretty soon after 30 times begin to ask yourself why am I like this? And you find the reason why you're afflicted. You begin to see the reason behind your affliction. What happened to you if you're afflicted and you stay afflicted? you cannot see it. But if you convince yourself, you get yourself into the habit of dropping it. I don't want to be afflicted. I don't care. You clear your head and naturally you see, oh, now you see how the affliction arises. You see the cause your affliction. That's why you say, do I really want to be like this? Until you see the cause, until you give yourself a chance to see, you cannot drop it. You cannot drop the cause. So the process is very clever. You keep on dropping and dropping and dropping. It's like when you get a recipe for cooking, you don't ask why why why, right? You keep on doing and do it and you do it a hundred times. One day you understand why. You got that.
