It is thought to be another thing, which it is, but to be another thing isn't to say it is a seperate thing... even to say it is a thing is to say it stands out against no thing, and it does, but these aren't seperate. So I shouldn't say a seperate thing...

The main thing is, it happens to be this way, and that's so simple a truth.

People like to think the truth is personal, but such a comfort can only serve to strengthen fallacious beliefs, justify holding on to something untrue, and it seems so liberal to validate a belief as a truth, but is it not extremely dogmatic and opinionated?

I often wonder, more recently even more, what happened to the truth? When did someones opinion become 'personally true'?

Why has meditation been equated to the comfort of the creature?

So silent it is.

I would advise anyone to make an appointed time for meditation. It only needs to be part of the schedule. People like to say 'whenever you feel like it', but life doesn't work like that... the corn needs to planted or you hunger instead of harvest.
