The Only Evil

“By being alive to difficulty one can avoid it.”  -Lao Tzu

Inattention is our only problem.

Problems remain problems because we are unaware of the thoughts that created them.

As usual, the remedy is awareness.

As you become more aware of the mind’s tendency to create problems, the fewer problems it creates. Which is the natural result of being more aware.

The most valuable thing I’ve learned from being aware: When you know you are aware, you are trouble-free.

And a couple bonus rounds… When you know you are aware, every thought assists.

When active, moment-to-moment awareness effortlessly generates impeccable activity.
