Mark Epstein Quotes

In Mindfulness Meditation, The Self That Needs Protection Is Put Into Neutral. The Observing Self Slips Into The Space Between The Ego And The Dissociated Aspects Of The Personality And Observes From There. The Breath, Or Sound, Becomes The Central Object Of Focus, As Opposed To Thought. Thinking Becomes One More Thing To Observe In The Field Of Awareness But Is Robbed Of Its Preeminent Position. Do Not Grasp After The Pleasant Or Push Away The Unpleasant, But Give Equal Attention To Everything There Is To Observe, Taught The Buddha. This Is Difficult At First But Becomes Remarkably Easy Once One Gets The Hang Of It. One Learns First To Bring One's Attention To The Neutral Object And Then To Relax Into A State Of Choiceless Awareness Rather Than Always Trying To Maintain Control. As The Ego's Position Is Weakened, Waking Life Takes On Aspects Of Dream Life To The Extent That New Surprises Keep Unexpectedly Emerging.
