Episode 106 – Puzzles and Glimpses

A common idea about the spiritual path is that it is punctuated by gigantic breakthroughs, by big revelations  •  but many deep and important insights don’t come in that way; they come in through glimpses  •  glimpses can be sudden or they can just kind of seep in; they are little openings or gateways into a sense of the whole  •  in some ways glimpses are similar to a jigsaw puzzle  •  we have all these pieces, and we have little insights that this piece fits into that, or this piece doesn’t fit into that  •  we begin to put some things together and we kind of swim around and we don’t really know actually where it’s going to end up  •  but eventually, step by step, the complete picture begins to emerge  •  the whole notion of practice and study is that we’re deepening our understanding, but it doesn’t happen in a linear fashion  •  it happens through glimpses, and sometimes those glimpses can be shocking; they can completely upset our whole view of things.
