1 MIN Meditation - The Power Of Stillness Between Thoughts
Understanding the stillness between thoughts in meditation is profoundly important—it is the gateway to deeper awareness and transformation.
🙏🏻Why Stillness Between Thoughts Matters
➡️ Natural Clarity of Mind – The mind, when left unaltered, is naturally blissful and clear. – Like muddy water settling, stillness allows the natural clarity of the mind to shine through. – This stillness is not emptiness—it is the uncontrived state where the mind finds its true nature.
➡️ Beyond Subject-Object Duality—Remaining in stillness moves you beyond the duality of subject and object. – It leads to insight (vipashyana) and the realization of egolessness. – Such stillness is essential for liberation from the ordinary conceptual world.
➡️ The Space of Transformation —stillness is where the dirt of thoughts and emotions settles. – It is the space where the intrinsic nature of reality and the nature of your mind are revealed. – From this space, wisdom and loving compassion radiate.
➡️ The Balance of Relaxation and Alertness – Meditation requires a balance between relaxation and alertness. – Stillness is not passive—it is a poised state of awareness. – Too much effort leads to tension; too little leads to dullness.
➡️ The Mirror of the Buddha Nature—In stillness, the sky-like nature of your true being is revealed. – Your Buddha nature shines like the sun, with wisdom and compassion as its light and warmth.
🧘🏻Practical Implication
In meditation, the stillness between thoughts is not a void—it is the most natural state of mind. It is where transformation occurs, where the ego dissolves, and where true insight arises.
Go, well. Don
