I had an inspiration the other day which I want to share.
In Buddhism, and many other spiritual practices, they teach compassionate self awareness as the path to enlightenment. The Buddha had a long series of teachings about this, but what's interesting is their meditation practice. One sits and stays in awareness of whatever is going on inside themself. But, instead of trying to change what you see inside, instead of trying to fix it, you're guided to have compassionate acceptance of whatever you find inside yourself.
No matter how nasty or how wonderful what you find inside yourself, compassionate self acceptance is the Buddha's guidance.
