A one sided view on something is what causes you to get locked into only seeing things from the side of suffering. It matters little what the one sided view is as it’s the rigidness of being in a limited mode that doesn’t allow free flowing energy; this is what happens when a story is created and it becomes one sided. It becomes deeply ingrained and hence deeply fixed as one becomes more and more emotionally tied into whatever it is that’s being focused on. It’s very difficult to not attach to something that is held dear to our hearts, such as our children, spouse, parents, relatives, friends and so on, but you can have compassion, passion, and genuine love for something without holding onto it from one side.
To me this one sided view is the normal view of most people and it’s why many suffer unnecessarily. I’ve noticed this occurring in so many lives and I can see the suffering it causes. Unfortunately those in the midst of a one sided view cannot see it, nor can they pull themselves out of it until the one sided view is seen as the cause of their suffering. A one sided viewed doesn’t allow the openness needed to be free from attachment and since attachment is the root of suffering, suffering is inevitable. The more one sided the grip of something is, the more one becomes fixated on it and the less free flowing energy there is in one’s life. There’s not much free flowing energy in something that’s one sided and because of this the free flowing energy is cut off and the one sided view controls life and causes you to suffer…
