Stilling the Mind: Ancient Lessons for a Restless World

If the mind is moving around a lot, you’re going to need oxygen, you’re going to need to breathe. But if your brain is doing very little work—it’s very still, very quiet, very alert right here—the need to breathe gets less and less. You feel that your body is full of breath energy. That’s where the breath originates. It originates from within. It’s the energy that allows the air to come in and out through the nose and the lungs. Now, when the body is saturated with this energy, when it’s full, you can be very still. This is the state the Buddha said is ideal for gaining insight because the issues of the body have grown still. Many layers of the mind have fallen away. Different layers of fabrication fall away, fall away, fall away as you get more concentrated. ☸️ The Buddha didn’t fight social institutions — he fought greed, aversion, and delusion in the mind. That’s the revolution that still matters. 💡 “There’s nothing more beneficial than straightening out your own mind.” You have the power to change. You have the right to do the important work. 🙏 Subscribe for weekly Theravāda wisdom — insightful talks on freedom, integrity, and the mind that shapes the world.
