And your mind does not expect anything from
outside, so your mind is always filled, and even though your mind has
waves it is not disturbed mind, it is actually more amplified mind. Whatever
you experience it means amplifying your mind. You find various meanings of your own mind. It is not disturbance. Do you understand the difference between the
two understandings of your mind? Mind which includes everything, mind which is
related to something else. Actually the two are maybe the same thing, you know, but
understanding is different, or attitude toward your life if different. This is
Buddhist understanding of your mind. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture 67-01-12.
