Insanity is the act of pumping energy into stories that are not true.
Most of what we think about is insane. Much of that insanity has to do with the idea of possession: owning property, controlling others and valuing one thing over another.
Meditation is the practice of releasing such ideas.
When we notice some idea about possession arising during our practice period, we notice that (right now) the idea is absurd (i.e. insane). Then we notice the idea disappear on its own. Of course, laughter is encouraged during practice.
If most of our ideas about possession are insane, what is sanity when it comes to ideas of ownership?
Big hint:
To God belongs everything in the heavens and everything on earth, and all matters are controlled by God.
(Quran 3:109)
Peace on you,
