Understanding

It’s hard to understand when our heads and egos are stuffed with secondhand ideas; if we drop them and sit quietly in meditation, truth becomes clear.

Talking is easy; living what you say is hard—so change yourself first and your example will speak.

Most people today still think like the distant past, so they can’t hear fresh truth; only a quiet, meditative mind can.

If you stop trying to figure him out with your head and just listen with love, the meaning appears on its own.

No one is ordinary; you understand when you wake up inside and listen without your usual habits getting in the way.

Make sure you understand and grow yourself; don’t try to force others to think like you.

You only truly learn by fully experiencing something with awareness; avoiding it teaches nothing.

Keep coming, stay open, and let the master help break your hard shell; then understanding will naturally happen.
