As you continue upon your path of spiritual and personal transformation you realize that it’s necessary to learn how to practice practical spirituality, or spiritual dharma, in everyday life.
Once when walking in an orange grove conversing with my teacher Xian Rinposhe, I asked the following question: “Master how can you practice spiritual dharma when you encounter difficult situations in life?”
Although the answer to my question was from a Buddhist’s perspective, I believe that what he shared with me was priceless, because it gave me a useful roadmap for dealing with any difficult situations that came up in my life.
According to Master Xian the dharma way to handle problems is to: face it, accept it, handle it, and then let it go.
Face It
Facing the problem gives you clarity about what really is occurring or has occurred. It also gives you confidence as you tackle that problem head on. When you see the problem as it is, you view it from the eyes of the present moment.
Accept It
Seeing the situation as it is in the moment then allows you to accept it and to be ready handle it, or to do something about it. When you handle the situation with dharma you let wisdom and compassion guide you to the most effective solution and then you act on that solution.
Let It Go
Once you have acted on the solution you are then able to let it go. Letting it go means that you don’t have to worry about it anymore.
Practicing spiritual dharma in problem solving allows you to be more empowered in life. More importantly it gives you an effective method for quickly dealing with those difficult situations and circumstances that will inevitably show up in life, so that you can quickly release them and moving on towards the bigger and brighter opportunities in life.
