Opinions

Good Morning,

One of the best practices for everyday living (especially for those who do not meditate) is to pay attention to our opinions. In meditation we become aware of our thoughts. In our normal daily lives we can begin to notice our opinions just as we do our thoughts during meditation. This can prove to be extremely powerful because most of us have a lot of opinions and we tend to take them as truth when actually they aren't. Opinions are opinions, nothing more or less. When we begin to notice them and make note of them for what they are we begin to introduce the notion of egolessness into our lives. Ego after all is really just our opinions.

If we can see them our opinions for what they are and let them go we may discover that we are in a brand new world, one we have new eyes and ears for. It takes courage and patience to be awake to our opinions, but slowly and wholeheartedly awaking our clear natural intelligence benefits the whole of mankind and this earth.

Have a great day and remember to have patience, live one day at a time, one moment at a time and chaos will turn to wisdom.

Peace and Love, Jim
