Understanding that everything is impermanent, that happiness is transformed into suffering, and that all phenomena are lacking reality in themselves and are only projections of our mind, will permit us to counteract the first hindrance to meditation, that is, our attachment to this world.

— Bokar Rinpoche

Bokar Rinpoche, a revered Tibetan Buddhist master, offers a potent insight into overcoming attachment, a primary obstacle to meditation. He highlights the crucial understanding of three interconnected truths: the universal law of impermanence, the inherent nature of suffering even within seemingly happy experiences as they inevitably change, and the lack of inherent, independent reality in all phenomena, which are instead seen as projections of our own minds. By deeply contemplating these truths, we begin to loosen the grip of our clinging to the world and its fleeting pleasures. Recognizing the transient nature of all things, the potential for joy to turn into sorrow, and the mind-created nature of our perceptions directly undermines the basis of our attachment, paving the way for a more detached and focused meditative practice. This understanding allows us to see the world with greater clarity and less emotional investment, thus counteracting the initial resistance to turning inward.
