Frustration During Meditation

A man asks about frustration during meditation. Rupert suggests that we are only frustrated if we are trying to control our experience. In this case, if we are frustrated with thinking, stay with the thinking and emphasise the ‘I am’ part of the thought,‘I am thinking’. Also, see that ‘I am thinking’ is one experience, not two.
