The Absolute Truth is that there is nothing absolute in the world, that everything is relative, conditioned and impermanent, and that there is no unchanging, everlasting, absolute substance like Self, Soul, or Ātman within or without. ~ Buddha

Comments
Expectations alloy and filter your perception of what is actually there.
If one is feeling depressed, then simply looking at what one has been expecting knowingly or unknowingly, and comparing it to what is actually there, can start to bring one out of depression.
It is getting back to that place within you, which is your “home”. This is what Elizabeth Gilbert is talking about in this TED talk.
Success, failure and the drive to keep creating
EXERCISE 6: Let the mind un-stack itself.
1. Observe as usual. Notice the environment and other people.
2. Do not pursue a question when there is no response. The right question will naturally bring up a response.
3. Simply look at what is right there in front of your physical and mental vision.
4. Do not search the mind or dig into it for explanation. Let the mind present what it may.
5. Do not put any resistance to the mind. Simply observe fully what the mind presents.
6. If there are many issues, let the mind choose what to look at first.
7. Do not manipulate. Simply observe the issue uppermost in the mind.
8. Contemplate patiently on whatever is there by looking at it from various angles.
9. If the mind wants to get lost, let it get lost. Get some rest. The mind will return.
10. Let the mind un-stack itself naturally in the order it wants to.
11. Expand your span of attention and let the perceptions pour in.
12. Let the realizations present themselves to you without you making any effort.
You may do this exercise while sipping coffee in a café, or strolling along a river. You may even find a place where you can sit comfortably for a while without being disturbed and patiently observe the stage that this world presents.
Develop this exercise to a point where you may execute it even while interacting socially with others. Keep observing patiently without forcing the mind in any manner. Many things may come up naturally to be scrutinized. Simply observe them and become aware of them without making any effort.
Easy for retired guys to say! 🙂
No really, this is excellent advice.
One can always operate at a level of relative unknowness. This advice is to improve upon that level with better awareness.
I have quite a bit to say to you, but it’s payroll right now and I have to finish reports. I’ll will write a worthy reply soon, both here and on the Gita thread.
Nice work here, Vinaire!
so how is this KTHK mindfulness different to Vippassana ?
In principle, KHTK mindfulness is not different from Vipassana. It simply explores those principles further. Please see Mindful Discussion
