Rethinking Impatience - Jogen Salzberg, Sensei
In this talk on the paramita of patience (kshanti), impatience is explored as the tension between our desires and reality. Rather than something to resist, it becomes a doorway to awareness when we learn to let experiences arise and pass without reacting. This practice reveals a deeper sense of spaciousness and reduces our dependence on external conditions for fulfillment. Patience, in this way, becomes a flexible and grounded way of relating to both life and the spiritual path.
