ep44: you don't have to clear your mind

When we catch a glimpse of the infinite peace that is beyond our thinking, the mind says to itself, "Oh, that was nice, I want to be there ALL the time!"

The sweet little mind tries and tries and tries to quiet itself. Deep breaths. Perfect posture. The right technique. But it can't quiet itself... because that's not in its nature. Just like teeth can't chew themselves.

When we truly see that our thoughts are just thoughts- that they hold no inherent truth just because they pass through our head- we get some space. As we get curious about this, we realize that there's no reason to go on a crusade against something that is completely harmless.
