In this talk, Pramod says, “Some, as they try to meditate, get very annoyed or frustrated when thoughts arise. Maybe they have an unrealistic goal that when they meditate there should be no thoughts at all. There is a Tibetan saying, “It’s a tall order to ask for meat without bones and tea without leaves.” As long as you have a mind, you will have thoughts and emotions. The thoughts are composed of the mind stuff itself, just as the waves of the sea come from the sea itself and go back into the sea. In the same way, thoughts and emotions are the radiance and the expression of the very nature of your mind. Accepting such a compassionate view of your thoughts and emotions is the easiest way to quiet your mind in meditation.” Note: This is the live recording of a talk which was delivered by Pramod in India.
