those pesky thoughts

When meditating we sometimes fall into the trap of trying to quiet the mind. It is the nature of the mind (due to conditioning) to think. It is its job!

Just like it is the nature of the wind to blow hither and yon, it is natural for thoughts to arise sometimes often and sometimes rarely. We need do nothing about them because they are not 'ours' any more than the wind is 'ours'.

Just noticing this is massive freedom as well as the goal of meditation practice. You are beyond anything that can be thought, felt or experienced.

good news huh!
