Insightful meditation is something anyone can learn and become skillful.
Since Western education does not explain how the mind functions in everyday life, many Westerners these days are seeking out meditation they are not satisfied with what they’ve been taught about the mind.
If you check more deeply into how your mind functions in everyday life, you’ll realize how dissatisfied you are and how the ups and downs are with controlling the mind. That the up and down itself is suffering, that’s all. It’s” really simple!” Thought pain you have not actual physical pain.
Those kinds of suffering are very temporary; they’re nothing. But if you check within yourself, whether you’re rich or poor, famous or unknown, you’ll always find dissatisfaction, a kind of uncontrollable, ever-changing energy of dislike. That energy too is suffering.
Not what you will lose be what you will gain!
Buddha was asked, “What have you gained from meditation?” He replied, “Nothing” However, let me tell you what I lost: Anger, Anxiety, Depression, Insecurity, Fear of Old Age and Death.”
