NON-RESISTANCE!
SUTRA'S - SIMPLE TRUTHS ON THE SUBJECT
Don’t
resist what is
Worry, suffering, pain... is in the resistance itself
In non-resistance, in acceptance, in surrender
Is freedom
Try it
Don’t make it an intellectual understanding
Next time you worry, suffer, and feel
pain
Become aware that it arises not from the situation
But your resistance to it
Move into this awareness
In becoming aware of your resistance
You automatically take a step away from it, and the pain
Try it
Don’t make it an intellectual understanding
If you are unhappy you are resisting
something
The deeper the resistance the stronger the pain
Move into this awareness
You cannot be aware… and in resistance!
Thus the quicker you can move into awareness of your resistance
the quicker does resistance and its angst fade
and only as you slip out of the witness mode of awareness
does it all come back again
and you are flung from the audience seat
into the hurly burly of the play
Try it
Don’t make it an intellectual understanding
Move into this awareness
on a constant basis - be the witness.
