“The forest is peaceful, why aren’t you? You hold on to things causing your confusion. Let nature teach you. Hear the bird’s song then let go. If you know nature, you’ll know truth. If you know truth, you’ll know nature.”

~ Ajahn Chah (1918-1992)

As long as we have practiced neither concentration nor mindfulness, the ego takes itself for granted & remains its usual normal size, as big as the people around one will allow.
The more we abandon ill-will & hatred, the easier it will be to meditate.
