“... I give only two suggestions. The first is to see things to be just what they are, because that is how the vastness is always seeing things. Thoughts are thoughts. Emotions are emotions. The body is just the body. Its the mind's interpretation of things that ends up creating suffering - the sense that there is a problem, that fear or anger or sadness means there's something wrong with me, that certain emotions or experiences have to be eliminated for me to be OK, that something needs to be practiced or achieved in order to become the infinite. The mind is constantly interpreting in this way, while the vastness just looks around and sees that things are just what they are.

The second suggestion, which is actually a nonsuggestion, is to follow the obvious, because that is how the mysterious doer behind everyone's life is constantly revealing the truth of each moment. Now I'm not saying you need to figure out what the obvious is and then follow it. The mind doesn't usually perceive the obvious, and it tends to devalue what it can't perceive. Take the expression "it's just too obvious", for example. It's not complicated or painful enough. The mind is drawn to complexity and struggle. That's the sphere of the mind.”
