“If at first something seems as though it may be harmful, if you can turn from aversion and open yourself to its potency to become the path, your strength on the path will surely increase. In order for all this to happen, you simply have to stop seeing circumstances as harmful situations or as something that is wrong. Give all your effort towards practicing to see it as something that is valuable. Based on that, you develop a sense of good cheer. Trying to practice this is the essence of the first aspect of the teaching on the transformation of adversity into the path.” Gyatrul Rinpoche
