No Problem. You Are Not Crazier Than

No Problem. You Are Not Crazier Than You Were Yesterday. It Has Always Been This Way, And You Just Never Noticed.

But Look Within And Watch The Stuff Coming Up-restlessness, Anxiety, Impatience, Pain-just Watch It Come Up And Don't Get Involved. Much To Your Surprise, It Will Simply Go Away. It Rises, It Passes Away. As Simple As That. There Is Another Word For Self-discipline. It Is Patience.

The Purpose Of Meditation Is Personal Transformation.

Mindfulness Helps Us Freeze The Frame So That We Can Become Aware Of Our Sensations And Experiences As They Are, Without The Distorting Coloration Of Socially Conditioned Responses Or Habitual Reactions.

Buddhism Advises You Not To Implant Feelings That You Don’t Really Have Or Avoid Feelings That You Do Have. If You Are Miserable You Are Miserable; That Is The Reality, That Is What Is Happening, So Confront That. Look It Square In The Eye Without Flinching. When You Are Having A Bad Time, Examine That Experience, Observe It Mindfully, Study The Phenomenon And Learn Its Mechanics. The Way Out Of A Trap Is To Study The Trap Itself, Learn How It Is Built. You Do This By Taking The Thing Apart Piece By Piece. The Trap Can’t Trap You If It Has Been Taken To Pieces. The Result Is Freedom.
