This is probably the 5th or 6th time I’ve been drawn to study the course. This time, after a lot of years, it really “hit”. I don’t know why but it’s just clearer, and all I can think of is that it’s my “want” that is more powerful than it was before. I just want. more light so I can see where I’m going.
That external actions, or moving externally are not “it”, the internal intention has to be correct in order for the externality to be correct. I wish more light for all of the students.
For me, I realize now it’s the wanting. I have this bottomless pit of wanting and nothing fulfills it. I chase pleasure because of it. I can’t change it.
