To be able to sit still, contortions of the Body alone will not do. You have to come to terms with the Mechanics of the Mind.

People are not suffering life. They are suffering the two most fantastic faculties that human beings alone have – a vivid sense of memory and a fantastic sense of imagination.

Your mind being full or you being mindful is not the same as being conscious.

The moment you disidentify yourself from everything, the mind will become still.  

Your mind is like a fireball. If you harness it, it can become like the sun.
