A Sample Meditation:Loss on the Way to EnlightenmentAvoidance, rationalization, religion, reality, projection, distraction Acknowledging that we often grow tired of the painful truthabout poverty, illness, racism, discrimination,environmental ruin, and warfare,we confess that we have escaped through distraction usingfood, entertainment, alcohol, and personal isolation.We regret most deeply that we have fashioned religionsto mask reality, often blaming our cruel indifferenceon a divine being of our own creation.Liberate us from the darkness of ignorance and call us,we pray, into the light of truth,that we may be partners in working forpeace and justice.
