Thx so much for the precious feedback, my dear brother in The
Way.The honesty and openness of your staments clearly shows you are
in the right path, for when we catch ourselves "lost in thought"
right there in that precise moment we are conscious, we become
suddenly and perhaps momentarily "present". Try to catch yourself
unconscious, unaware, more and more often, try to do it again and
again and again...In my practice and experience this has proved to
be a powerful excercise in clearing and polishing my awareness when
both in everyday life and on the cushion.Well... since we were
originally sharing on the beauty and significance of
relaxation,expansion of our life experience,melting,letting go...and
how difficult it is for all of us. When i noticed how unable ive
always been to simply let go into the way things really
are,accidentally i came across the very obstacle that was closing my
way...It was an idea,an idea i haddent yet understood,considered in
the light of awareness,an idea i haddent been corageous enough to
contemplate face to face. It was the idea "I".Ever since that
experience this "I" idea have been melting away and instead a new
understanding has started to grow,develop by itself,or simply has
started to unfold by itself.The crucial tactic here is to consider
this malconstructed "idea of I",being fully honest inside.Courage to
see inner reality is a rewarding asset.
