It takes time and practice to sort the inner chatter from the seeds of wisdom within us all. It helps to sit in the quiet and allow things to be.
Many things help you with concentration....so they can be useful parts of practice. But finally, there is no substitute for insightful seeing or for understanding how you create suffering for yourself; and in the process—in seeing into and through it—how to let go of it. It’s a life of awareness.
—Larry Rosenberg
This is hard to do. I'm learning to shut up the chatter and listen to the real me. I have to remind myself of this, when all h is breaking loose.
