Susan Stone gave this dharma talk at IMCC on Jan 31, 2018.

Spiritual practice is onward-leading, as teacher Joseph Goldstein observed. However, we each face challenges as we practice, and often the movement can seem anything but onward. It can be discouraging. After a guided meditation, Susan Stone shares some of her practice challenges over time, Her account may serve to normalize your struggles and, perhaps, throw light on what she has experienced as the onward direction of practice.
