Accepting sole ownership of our emotions can make an enormous difference to our lives. Unless we accept the responsibility of owning whatever we feel, we will not be able to embrace our emotions as the path. As soon as we accept that we cannot actually justify our feelings, we can start to approach our feelings openly. To let go of justification requires that we let go of our experientially claustrophobic habit of referentiality. With some sense of space we can begin to experience our emotions as they are; rather than as if we had rehearsed them.p92, Spectrum of Ecstasy, Ngakpa Chögyam with Khandro Déchen, Aro Books, 1997, ISBN 0-9653948-0-8
