ego? what ego?
Today (and part of last night) was spent sitting. And sitting. And then some more sitting. Interspersed were discussions about ego at Shambhala. Not that I have a problem with ego...well, truth be told we *all* have trouble with it. Do you suffer? Thank ego (along with a number of other causes, but I digress). I had two "takeaway" thoughts (even though you're not supposed to grasp things).
The first is that for any particular moment or issue, it only lasts for a moment...then if it is still around, it is our mind recreating it. And we can stop our mind from recreating it. Second, without space there can be no form. So stop trying to fill up all the empty space inside and out.
