Insight during CBT :

Insight --- The situation for which I was suffering is not happening to me right now.

I was applying Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and all of a sudden this insight hit me. And as of the future I looked the evidence that I don't know.

@Leo Gura Was your avoidance of truth episode based on a therapy to improve one's life? When a person is suffering then is that person is avoiding truth ?

Thank you.

Of course! Avoidance is one of the top causes of all emotional disturbance.


All Teachers and Teachings are delusion. You have all the answers within you. The first step on the journey to Enlightenment is questioning all the beliefs and teachings you have ever received. Teachers/Teachings are a distraction/maya at the highest level. There comes a point where you need to trust in your own innate knowledge and derive your own insights into the nature of reality. Teachers make a living and lifestyle of selling you water by the river. You don’t need them. All you need is an insatiable desire for truth and then seriously contemplate reality and uncover all that is false.

If you share your situation in more detail we could get a more fruitful conversation going

No, you can face truth and still be suffering

Also by definition, distraction is a mechanism to avoid suffering
