Day Two Hundred and Eighty


Looking at some of the thoughts that carry me away from my meditation. Noticing my distant relationship to energy. Often, when there is little energy, I throw all my nervous and worried thinking at the lack, and create a no-win situation. At the other end of the spectrum, when I am bursting with energy, I pull back and create another pointless struggle. Lots of energy seems to equal a feeling of not being in control for me, of not being able to know who I am. Little energy and I feel that my self concept will disappear, disintegrate.

The Buddha did more than even steal fire from the Gods. He took craving out into the light.
