“How do you know you are confronting a classic "hindrance" on your spiritual path? Just ask yourself: am I losing my sense of balance, my sense of priorities, and my sense of what's really important? Am I being carried away by temporary reactions, by destructive emotions? That's what challenges do; they obstruct your insight and prevent you from seeing things as they really are. They stand between you and the calm clear awareness of the enlightened mind.” - Lama Surya Das
