Once a disciple went to his master and said, 'Master, I am not able to sit for meditation. My legs ache. I feel distracted.'
The master just said, 'It will pass.'
After two weeks, the disciple went back to the master, this time saying, 'I am able to meditate beautifully. I feel so aware and blissful.'
The master again replied, 'It will pass.'

Understand: Both pleasure and pain are from the mind. The root of pain and pleasure is the same. Meditation means dissolving the mind that experiences both.
