NURTURE 'SUSTAINED THOUGHT'

"Applied thought is similar to the hand holding a tarnished dish; sustained thought is similar to the process of rubbing it clean with the other hand. The quality of sustained thought inhibits the hindrance of doubt."

Excerpt from Swallowing the River Ganges : A Practice Guide to the Path of Purification by Matthew Flickstein

Doubt can be a very powerful tool to keep us from reaching our highest self. We doubt ourselves, our capabilities, our strengths, even those around us.

How is doubt a hindrance in your life?
