Quotes by Rob Preece  (?)

“When we look more deeply into emotional life, we will see that it does, indeed, color our view of reality. It does sometimes lead to delusions that project onto and distort our experience of reality. It also stimulates a huge amount of discursive conceptual chatter that can be extremely disturbing. However, as we become more familiar with the different ingredients of our emotional life, what will become very obvious is the complexity of our emotional patterning and its influence over us. It is this complexity that leads many of us either to go into therapy or to embark upon some kind of meditation practice, or both.”
Rob Preece, Feeling Wisdom: Working with Emotions Using Buddhist Teachings and Western Psychology

“Our emotions, as the Latin origins of the word imply, move us into action; they become problematic only when we are dominated by their strength and allow them to rule us in unhealthy ways.”
Rob Preece, Feeling Wisdom: Working with Emotions Using Buddhist Teachings and Western Psychology

“Jung defined the complexes of the unconscious as “psychic entities that have escaped from the control of consciousness and split off from it, to lead a separate existence in the dark space of the psyche, whence they may at any time hinder or help conscious performance.”
