Easier Said Than Done

Tagged:

We are four. A team. We're working together to introduce 20 people on a weekend retreat to the practice of Serene Reflection Meditation. We have a leaflet outlining the basics...it's not instruction on sitting.

Many have had experience both within this tradition and within others. The term meditation has come up over and over again. I've pointed out in many different ways and at length to: just sit, sit still within bodymind, it is enough to sit. To simply deliberately decide not to follow deliberate thoughts.

All easier said than done!

And then one chap observed when his mind became agitated he noticed a part of his body was disturbed. Eureka! He had discovered the connection. Body-mind, not two.
