On the other hand, the problem of not meditating anymore may not be a problem or a difficulty for those whose minds are continuously meditating. But most of us, and most people in this world, have our minds on anything but meditation. We are attending to what we need to do, what has happened to us, what may happen to us, and what plans we have, and we can never get out of there. We are hooked in a tangle of threads, like a spider's web, which, once caught, we cannot get out of. We are surrounded by this. They are like adhesive substances in the strands, and as soon as we touch them, they get more stuck. And the mind is like a tangle of threads that cannot be detached from each other. It is like this.
And we can't let go because we can't stop doing what we need to do either. We can't even let the day get lost, what we will eat, where we will work, and what to do with the children. We need to do all this. But life is not just that. We do all this to stay alive and maintain the genetic life of humanity so that there is another generation. However, we are not an automatic mechanism for nature to remain active, but we are aware.
So, if not a moment, or more than one moment in the day when we get out or try to get out of this entanglement, to at least contemplate this entanglement, to detach ourselves from it. No exercise can get us out of there. Because if the meditation exercise is just one of the things I need to do, then it's part of the tangle. It is only something else that Cafh tells me to do, like go to a meeting. I'm going to a meeting, but the meeting needs to be out of the tangle. I need to calm down. First, I need to get out of the tangle. I can't go to the meeting with this tangle. I need to leave it at the door, or at least try to leave it at the door and open a bit to see what life is like outside the tangle.
And talking about meditation is like talking about our whole life. There needs to come a time when we know what to do. First, having the ability to create empty time. No content. And not to have a horror of empty times and want to fill them with distractions. Because then we need to escape. He doesn't know what to do. The tangle falls on top of him. He wants to think of something else but cannot think of anything else outside the tangle, which mixes with distraction and becomes another problem. And to live with this tangle is to live distracted, although sometimes it delights us. To live distracted is to postpone. When we say, "Don't distract me," it means, "Don't waste my time. When we are distracted by the tangle, we waste the time we vitally need to face the tangle and expand our consciousness a little.
Even if we don't know how to meditate, we can't meditate or don't want to meditate anymore. Stop! And get out of the tangle. Because even when we have doubts and are perplexed, this is part of the tangle. Skirt! Doubt is a thread of the same! In this world, everyone can be doubtful about everything we see. Nothing can be doubted, and nothing can say that something else is better. It's part of the tangle; you need to get out, get out of it, be able to get out, or at least want to get out. Because, coming to this point, I'm saying there are two alternatives: "I don't want to leave" and "I want to leave." Many don't want to get out of the tangle because they don't want to create problems.
But those of us who have a vocation for development need to want to leave. Leave doubts behind, leave enthusiasm behind, leave rapture behind, leave emotions behind. To get out of the tangle and be at peace. And see if we can meditate there.
