“Coming to the end of suffering means that we learn how to work with and understand and free ourselves from the force of the fetters in the mind. What’s amazing about this teaching is that it’s ultimately, completely empowering because it’s all up to us. Our suffering is not due to other people. We can take responsibility for our own minds.”– Joseph Goldstein

This week, Joseph offers wisdom on:
Mindfulness of the patterns of experienceInternal and external sense spheresThe mind as a sixth senseThe way we attach the self to all we experienceSeeing objects as being conditioned and selflessOur sense organs and paying attention to how we experience sensesThe contingent nature of consciousnessFreeing the mind by becoming disenchantedRecognizing defilements when they arise, and letting them goHow we often push the river of experience rather than allowing it to flowMaintaining openness of the mind without preferences“What’s difficult is to see all of these sense objects and the sense bases, to see and understand them as being conditioned, selfless, not I, not mine, not belonging to anyone. Not only seeing the sense object and sense base as selfless, but seeing the knowing of them as selfless.”– Joseph Goldstein

“It is so freeing to realize that the only power that thoughts have is the power that we give them. The thought itself is little more than nothing. It is just this little blip in the mind, arising and passing away. But, when they’re unnoticed and we’re identified with them, taking them to be self, we’re giving them an enormous power in our lives.” – Joseph Goldstein

“The Buddha is saying that consciousness itself is a conditioned phenomena. It’s impersonal, arising out of causes, arising out of conditions moment to moment. Here we see that consciousness is not something that’s permanent. It’s not something that’s always present waiting for an object to appear, to be known. But rather consciousness itself is a process continually arising and passing away moment after moment.” – Joseph Goldstein

“We also create concepts about things that may seem even more fundamental like age, gender or race. But when we look more deeply, we see that these are concepts too. How old is your breath? It doesn’t make sense. Is the pain in your back male or female? What color is your mind? It’s not to say that the concepts don’t point to some differences of experience, but we often become so identified with and attached to the concept." – Joseph Goldstein

We’re paying attention.” – Joseph Goldstein
