When people share their troubles, worries and concerns with you, look at them and listen to them, but dont just stop there. Also look through them and listen through them until you sense their essential spirit, or soul or true nature, that silent background which is always at peace and unaffected as it quietly witnesses their life and this present drama. As you do so you will honor both their persona and their essence, and this balanced state of presence will create a space and container where profound resolution and healing can spontaneously occur. This is the most beautiful, remarkable and reliable thing I have learned in my years of working with people.
