As a matter of fact, it does not matter <em>one bit</em> what your mind does during meditation. What matters is realizing that you are a spectator to your mind. You are in actuality quietly watching it. It's like quietly watching busy traffic from the pavement; are you affected by what happens in the traffic? When two cars bump into each other, are you injured? No way. Your thoughts are nothing but mental traffic, and you are their motionless witness. Try and see this in your head and then constantly enjoy the stillness that you really are. If you are talking about your mind drifting away during meditation, it does not matter.

We tend to cling on to our fears, our wants that we sometimes fail to realize that there is more to life than just these things. For example, a person keeps getting tensed as he wants to earn more money coz he wanna buy Mercedez Benz, but as u said, if he leaves the rope, he still realizes he can be happy with a beetle and at the same time work calmly to get his mercedez benz.... Hi,

Its a very beautiful analogy that you have written over here.

We tend to cling on to our fears, our wants that we sometimes fail to realize that there is more to life than just these things.

For example, a person keeps getting tensed as he wants to earn more money coz he wanna buy Mercedez Benz, but as u said, if he leaves the rope, he still realizes he can be happy with a beetle and at the same time work calmly to get his mercedez benz….
