Reflection
Psychological Insight
The attempt to escape from pain is what creates more pain.
— Gabor Maté
दर्द से बचने की कोशिश ही अधिक दर्द पैदा करती है।
— गेबर माटे
Why this matters:
Suppression and avoidance are only temporary solutions that ultimately intensify our suffering. True healing comes from leaning into our discomfort and understanding its source with compassion.
यह क्यों मायने रखता है:
दमन और परिहार केवल अस्थायी समाधान हैं जो अंततः हमारी पीड़ा को तेज करते हैं। सच्ची चिकित्सा हमारी असुविधा में झुकने और करुणा के साथ इसके स्रोत को समझने से आती है।
