@outlandish shinzen Young said that it took him 20 years to the point where he could be happy in a traffic jam. Gosh, if he sat with Byron Katie, he could’ve done it in 20 mins. That’s why I say that inquiry is superior to meditation.


"Not believing your own thoughts, you’re free from the primal desire: the thought that reality should be different than it is. You realise the wordless, the unthinkable. You understand that any mystery is only what you yourself have created. In fact, there’s no mystery. Everything is as clear as day. It’s simple, because there really isn’t anything. There’s only the story appearing now. And not even that.” — Byron Katie

Claiming one technique is universally superior than another is very myopic. What works for one may not work for another and vice versa. 

 

@outlandish Thanks for the video!
