The Buddha teaches us that one suffers because one desires. If one goes through life without expectations, one cannot know disappointment. How can I attain such a level? How can I pacify my mind?

There would be no point in cultivating any state of mind if there was not an expectation. I think you are misunderstanding.

Just focus on what you are doing instead of what you are thinking. Chop the wood and carry the water.

No. in your case just eat the snacks and make the posts or whatever it is you are doing. attention is different from thoughts. thoughts come and go but cannot be stopped indefinitely. train yourself to notice when your attention is focused on thought instead of what you are doing. or just smoke weed or something man Buddha. fucked around with this message at 00:43 on Aug 27, 2016 |

Buddha. posted:attention is different from thoughts. I take umbrage with this. You are telling me that the difference between the enlightened and the unenlightened is whether or not I am distracted? I suppose I should hook electrical nodes to my head that can read the psychomagnetic waves in my brain and deliver a shock whenever my mind starts to wander?

a dog from hell posted:My point is that constantly prodding yourself into feeling or thinking what you think you should be feeling or thinking is ineffective. no prodding. try this: focus on the sensation of your breath at the tip of your nose. when your attention shifts from that sensation to another thought you will eventually realize this has occurred. return your attention to only the sensation of your breath at the tip of your nose. do that for anywhere from 20 minutes to however long you care to do it. that's all she wrote.

We thirst for the knowledge that ends all knowledge. We shake our fists at the sky and curse God for our predicament. God is silent.

Sit in a quiet place and concentrate on your breathing. When thoughts arise, acknowledge them, but then concentrate on your breathing again. Do this every day for many years.
