  • One of the important things in many kinds of meditation is it’s not about stopping the bees, but noticing them.

    I remember hearing about some Buddhist monk who was famed for his meditation. Someone asked him how long he could sit before his mind wandered “oh about seven seconds normally”. He just got very good at noticing when his mind wandered and trying again.

    If you’re stuck in mud with your wheels spinning, aerodynamics is the last thing on your mind, but you still might need enough space in the back for 8 sheep and a dog or six heavily armed insurgents.

    They’re just a bit shit for anything else.
