It is my sincere wish that I should learn to meditate. I
have read up a lot on this, made copious notes and attended a couple of courses
too.
But then, my mind starts playing games with me….a sort of
cross examination!
“Why do you want to learn to meditate?”
“To control you, of course!”
“You think you can do it, huh?”
“Yes, I can…it is not that difficult, people do it every
day!”
“Okay…If you think so…but tell me, what are you really
trying to achieve?”
“Hmmm….Peace of mind ?”
“ Oh…so the next time you face an unpleasant situation or
confrontation, you will say…wait…let me meditate and bring back my peace of
mind ….”
“ This is precisely why I want to meditate….always arguments
and counter questions ! I will be very good at it, you will see soon ! “
Well…I am still waiting for that moment to arrive…aarrrgh
!!! My mind games !
This is what runs through my mind too :-)

Oh dear and me too!! Maybe all those who have got half way through the Challenge are finding they are talking a lot more to themselves now??? At least now we can say we are on the homeward stretch :)

What are we trying to achieve? Perhaps not something as ambitious as peace of mind. Maybe, just peace will do...
