Pleasure vs. Truth

AuthorTBCE

In order to be truly free, you must desire to know the truth more than you want to feel good. 

... if the desire to feel good is stronger than the yearning to see, know, and experience reality honestly, then this desire will always be distorting the perception of what is real while corrupting one’s deepest integrity.

~ Michael Stone, The Inner Tradition of Yoga
