This quote from Jack Kornfield is a surefire prescription for Peace. He's pointing to that self we think we are: You know, THAT SELF; the one that has to be in control, that has to know how it's going to turn out, that has to be perfect, that judges you and everyone else even when you're asleep, that exhausting, indefatigable source of incessant head clatter? THAT SELF!
The question is, "How do I get THAT SELF out of the way"? The "how" is hidden in Jack's quote. What if you didn't believe, just for today on Peace Tuesday, that THAT SELF was real? What if you pretended that your disempowering thoughts, your judgments and assessments were not the you that matters, not the real you?
Imagine the space that would be left if you emptied out all of the NOT SELF/THAT SELF and simply rested. So Space Cadet, as a practice today, notice your disempowering thoughts and don't believe them! Do this and I promise you Peace.
Love,
Darlene
