Each of the four insights has three levels. The first is reflecting, the second is deepening, and the third is knowing. At the first level, we’re trying on the idea from the Buddha: that suffering is entwined with life. Then we drop into the direct experience, touching right in—this is the heart of our practice, saying that we’re ready to feel this. As we become available for the felt sense in the present moment, this naturally deepens into knowing it for ourselves, and the insight becomes part of how we relate to life, how we dance with life.
