Email: How do we open up our minds to understand? (US)
We get trapped worrying about selves, most of the time. It leads to expectations, stress, anger, hurt, fear.
Antidote is a Vast Mind. It’s opening up to something much bigger than our self-concern, opening to the freshness of each moment. Our world isn’t small, narrow, constricted. It’s big, illuminating, expansive, enigmatic.
Experience calm compassion, fiery passion of the moment to evolve. A vast mind is open, energetic, unbounded, creative, expressive, full of love.
Relax boundaries between selves and our goals, desires. Drop usual mind constructs to feel natural sensations, listen to faint inner voices. Return to wholeness feels wonderful. We think we know, but in fact each moment is full of new, exciting possibilities, explore.
No hardened attitudes but constantly curious, teachable. To act as if everything is completely new, no pre-conceptions (child-like sense of wonder). Just simple, pure experiences. Limitless awareness, belief.
