. We should bring that problem, no matter how big nor how small, to the teaching, and view the teaching as exactly the personal instructions we need for overcoming this particular problem.
How can it be that our teacher can be giving instructions to many yet it still be personal advice? The answer is blessings. When we have respect, a good motivation and view the instructions as personal advice for the sickness within our mind, we will receive special blessings that enable us to understand the teachings we are receiving as they relate to our inner problem. If others are doing the same with respect to their inner problems, they too will receive their special blessings and the teachings will likewise be personal advice for them – just in a different way. Ultimately, we have no problems other than the ones our delusions mentally create for us. All Dharma functions to oppose delusions, and every instruction of Dharma understood correctly has the power to oppose any delusion.
