More excerpts from Rechungpa's Biography

On the defilment (Skt. klesha): Pride

Pride is a very powerful obstacle but it doesn't arise when one has difficulties and suffering. It is a time when things are going very well and one is practicing well that pride can arise. When one is having difficulties and suffering the poisons such as anger and ignorance arise.
