**Note: Truth does not always sound pleasant. If the mind is not really peaceful now, it might not be a perfect moment to listen to this podcast, one has to be aware of the emotions or reactions that can block one from listenING ATTENTIVELY and with HUMILITY. This talk is a meditation practice. What one needs to do is listen attentively, without getting stuck in words, examine the mind in silence, not agree or disagree, just look at the mind as it is. Doing so is already part of true meditation.

Transcript

Can we,

One,

Observe how those commercial environments are playing a trick on the mind?

See the movement of thoughts?

See the desire arising from the images,

The mental images generated by the mind?

Can we just observe,

Let the desire flower and die without pursuing or satisfied desire or cut off it?

This means that to understand our life,

One has to hold.

To observe objectively,

If the mind has the pleasure to seek or has some fear to avoid,

The mind is already biased.

To observe the life carefully,

Examine it carefully,

Is to look without any direction,

Without any judgment,

Contamination,

Just see things as they are.

And the very doing so is meditation in an authentic way.

In that total understanding,

The mind transforms itself without any forcement,

Without any control.

When the mind understands life totally,

The intelligence is already operating.

In that intelligence,

There's wisdom,

There's peace and joy.

And in that joy,

There is the meaning of living,

Which human beings have been searching for thousands of years.

And when that intelligence is operating,

The me,

The ego is totally absent.

When the mind understands this life totally,

Which means that this life,

Which is mechanical,

Which is merely some thoughts,

Has been totally unstood,

Emptied,

And such a new living unfolds on a new dimension,

Where it is unknown.

And the beauty of living can only exist in the unknown.

And only a life in the unknown is a life free of all the influences.

Anyway,

The influence is always in the known.
