Dear Latha,

 

What a terrific metaphor! Wow! And how accurate...I will have to get

the book. I used to be terrified of dogs (of my own inner

mind/Self?), had terrible nightmares about being chased by big black

dogs, and the smallest dog could send me clamboring to the top of the

nearest car with a bark.

 

Then, in my 40s, something happened. Suddenly, I was no longer afraid

of dogs. I love dogs. I have raised several puppies and trained them,

and so I know exactly the metaphor that Kornfield is using. If only we

can be as patient with ourselves as we are with our puppies.
