"The Four Noble Truths are a lifetime’s reflection. It is not just a matter of realising the Four Noble Truths, the three aspects, and twelve stages and becoming an arahant on one retreat and then going onto something advanced.
The Four Noble Truths are not easy like that. They require an ongoing attitude of vigilance and they provide the context for a lifetime of examination."

In my limited experience, I am prone to all sorts of self games. The only thing that works for me personally is meditation, Buddhist meditation.
