The Place of Refuge
Thursday 25 June 2020
Without reference to thought or memory, is there anything problematic about your current experience? Without referring to thought, would you know that anything was missing from your current experience? The only reason we resist our current experience – unless, of course, our resistance rises on behalf of the well-being of the body – is that the current experience does not meet our expectations. How would it be to simply face our current experience without bringing our past or our memory to bear on it, but simply to face it as it is? If we did not refer to our past, we would not know what to expect of the present moment. How would it be to simply face our current experience without bringing our past or our memory to bear on it, but simply to face it as it is? That is how awareness faces all experience. Make the now your home, your refuge, the place where you are no longer assailed by the tyranny of the past or the future.
