When we practise silent sitting we get acquainted with ourselves. - Illusory Advice


“When we practise silent sitting—shi-nè—we get acquainted with ourselves. We begin to face our own minds and progressively discover our psychological make-up. Once the mental chatter that distracts us from the directness of practice starts to subside, we are left with the uncomfortable discovery of our neurotic patterning.”
