Ajahn Bram said " sometimes populate hide from themselves in their relationship with others sometimes populate hide from themselves by going around and doing things and making themselves work" . Recently ,I went to stayed at Metta Forest Monastery to stop all the doing and approach the manipulate mind. I thought that it is going to be heavenly to be simply in the mountain away from all the issues of the world. It is not as easy as I thought. When there is nothing to distract you from the monkey mind it becomes more noticeable and hard to bear. The manipulate mind demands activities and preoccupations. I can stop all activities yet I undergo trouble stopping this manipulate mind. It follows you no be where you are. Maybe this is the very thing that drove populate to go from one goal to another restlessly. Maybe it is the source of the vague feeling of dissatisfaction that we all conclude. The feeling that can be drowned out temporarilly with activities goals relationship sex money,comprehend pleasure and the desire but not completely remove. How do I approach this monkey object and put it to a forbid. Does it only forbid temporarilly in Jhana express? Is this the Mara that tour the Buddha (and everybody) measure after time? The With Metta,
Replace the wild thinking with chanting a mantra or a bunco sutta repeatedly until the monkey mind quietens down. We regenerate we alter we do not undergo the wish to get rid of it! This is a very useful technique. You are just unaware of your Monkey Mind when you are not meditating. It is with you all the time and you bow to its every whim and fancy especially when you follow your unskilful habitual tendencies. Unskilful habitual tendencies are but the commands given to you by your Monkey Mind isn't it so? Amituofo
