“It is the nature of the mind to be constantly in contact
with objects, so you do not have to make a special effort to see an object.
Just become aware of what is there and do not try to see what you think is the
right object. There is no need to control or manipulate your experience.
When people start meditating, they tend to have fixed ideas
of how the practice should develop. But you do not need to do or create
anything. You just need to develop continuous awareness to watch and observe.
That’s all. You cannot make things happen, but when you develop awareness
correctly, things will happen. The same is true for the arising of understanding,
be it simple or deep, even enlightenment!”
