Here we are in the change of seasonsβthe great turning. The sun is something for us to pay attention to, something we often take for granted. Notice the way the gift of sunlight streams behind everythingβit feeds the plants we eat. We can be grateful for sunlight and trees, for people we love, for moments of goodness, and for the breath within our breast. And as our gratitude grows, we may discover a happiness without cause.

Jackβs timeless wisdom leads the way as he responds to a handful of questions concerning some of the common struggles encountered on the human plane.
He explores:
β How do we stay present when feeling unpleasant emotions without giving in to them?
β Why is desire considered a cause for suffering when it can be an impetus for joy, creativity, or satisfaction? Jack explains the confusion some have with the term desire.
β Feelings of jealousy and how to work through or deal with them in meditation.
β Working with the ego.
β How tending to our spiritual life is a lot like gardening.
