One Breath at a Time

Dianne read a portion from One Breath at a Time at Sunday's meeting of the sangha. The reading began on page 140 and continued for a couple more pages. It concerned dropping habitual thoughts. Among other things. About really doing what we're doing. If we are meditating, then we should meditate. Of course, trying to clear the mind in itself can be frustrating. Sometimes it is better to just watch the mind - and with attention those discursive thoughts will abate.
