“Observing your thoughts, feelings & sensations is the grist of the practice.”
“An emotion is a thought, yes, an idea, but it is also a sensation, an ache in your body. Desire, love, hate, fear, repulsion - you feel these things in your muscle and bones, not just in your mind.”
“I feel it respectful to observe and practice new customs, if I am to ever understand what it truly means to be human.”
“Awake. Be the witness of your thoughts. You are what observes, not what you observe”
“You may feel a tugging sensation near your ankles.”
“I never gossip. I observe. And then relay my observations to practically everyone.”
