ACTIVITY OF THE DAY:

PROCEDURE:

Let us discover the “Monkey Mind”.
Close your eyes and try to focus on an
object or event. You will see that after
a few seconds you can’t continue. No
thought or idea can remain in our
inner space eternally. Immediately
another thought that comes along to
replace the last thought.

This is the inner chatter of our mind
referred to as the ‘monkey mind.’ This
chatter is the constant jumping of our
mind between past and future. It is
the journey that our mind undertakes
between what it has experienced and
stored as incomplete memories and
the unknown, which is full of
expectations and speculations, also
based upon the past.

ACTIVITY OF THE DAY:

PROCEDURE:

This jumping, this journey, is what we call thoughts.

Now drop your monkey mind at the
feet of the Master and move into the
present moment of completion.

INFERENCE:

The state of completion, which happens
from unclutching from all thoughts, is
the only point at which our inner
chatter stops and peace prevails.
