In Buddhist Philosophy and Buddhist Psychology, an important framework is known as The Six Perfections. These are virtuous states or characteristics that support us to have a stable mind and a kind heart. In this analytical practice we focus on the Perfection of Patience and reflect on its benefits and how it helps us maintain a calm and stable mind when we get frustrated or face difficulty with another person.
This practice is an analytical practice designed to sharpen our awareness of the reality of things when they initially appear as something different.
There are many times in our lives where things appear to us in one way but on further inspection or analysis it turns out that the reality is something quite different.
This practice both opens our minds and hearts to how different things can be to how they appear as well as sharpen our awareness of that difference.
