It is possible to experience the mind from a place that does not move
It is possible to experience the mind from a place that does not move. No effort is needed. When you are trying, you are engaging the mind in the me-activity and this veils the peace of being and feeds the personal, which is a stream of thinking and feeling. It is very subtle. The person and the…
