Technique For Stress-Free Living

Any simple movement in choicelessness is a technique for a stress free life. From morning until night, whatever you do, make it with the understanding of choicelessness. That is an important thing.

Anything you do, whether it is cooking, walking, talking, sitting, watching TV, going to office, or eating, even breathing and thinking, add the right understanding (technical information) about that into your system. When I say technical information, I mean be aware of how you are breathing, why you are breathing, where it is going to lead, is it going to lead you to where you want, or if your goal is something else, how do you change your breathing for that?

The same way for thinking. See what you are thinking, why you are thinking, where is it leading you, is it going to lead you to the space you want, or is it leading somewhere else? If it is leading you somewhere else, then how to change it? Add technical information to all of your actions.

When you are not in tune with the technical information, when you don't have the right understanding of a situation, that is where the conflict and the stress starts. The problem is, sometimes you want two or three different things from the same situation, which are self-contradictory. Even here, if you bring in the right technical information about everything, you will know very clearly which one to choose, and you will be intelligent enough to understand why you need to choose at all. You will understand clearly that only one of the choices can have a place in your heart, in your inner space, or only one action can be done by your body. Only one can be experienced by your mind. Only one can be happening in you. Bringing that technical information in clarifies the whole being.

If the technical information is brought in, everything you do is a technique for a stress-free life. If the technical information is not added, even the technique will add more stress to you.. The action or technique is not directly going to help you to be stress-free. The technical information is what going to make you stress-free.
