Light on desire

This is a desire realm - we have desire. We’re not trying to eliminate it, but train it. Where it goes wrong is where desire becomes craving, when it’s shrouded by ignorance. I don’t create craving, craving creates me. Take the me out of it, and there’s the possibility to view things differently. Moments, thoughts, objects, so intensely configured, begin to lose their hard edges. There is a stilling, a chance to clear one’s residues.

Light on effort, an oar in the stream

With effort, citta is the main thing. It’s both the heart quality from where intention streams and that which harvests the results. Then one knows where to best apply energy and how that’s done. Practise the application of effort to mindfulness of breathing, acknowledging and moderating the tools being used and the material they’re being applied to. When you practise rightly, there will be fortunate results.
