Show Notes

excessive criticism robs us of higher cognitive power / when we hear "family life" critiqued in sacred texts, think "affection limited to one's own family, community or nation" / 2 issues with family attachment – A. Seeing externals as our source of happiness, B. Limiting our affection to a small group / If I'm compassionate only to members of my own family, can it be said that I am truly compassionate? / the religious focus on the faults in others, the spiritual see the good and magnify it
