    Please take my words with a big grain of salt. I know nothing. Wisdom is only found in our whole-hearted practice together.

      Note, however, that if you sit beyond time in the back of a cab, be sure to get out upon arrival or you'll rack up quite a fare.

          I have a lot to learn; take anything I say that sounds like teaching with a grain of salt.

                  I am going to bump this myself, as it came up somewhere else today. Really, one of the most important lessons to take home ...

                      Jundo, you are a master of metaphor! I saw your related post on FB earlier, and it was great to revisit this again here tonight.

                      Thank you!

                      Gassho,

                          Thank you for bumping this thread. I periodically fall into this trap.

                            Thanks for bumping this Master Jundo (experimenting with the title lol). Sometimes <cough> my sitting is just to fill in a mental checkbox so I can say that I put in my 15 minutes or whatever. It's perfunctory, not genuine. But I *am* working every day on greater sincerity and quality, on dropping the mental narrative and remaining in neutral with open awareness and letting thoughts flow through that state of merely sitting. It isn't easy though.
