Meditation Is for You

INSTRUCTIONS

Be very clear: you are not suppressing the desire! Do not suppress the desire. Suppression is the root cause of most of our psychological problems.

Don't think, How can I quit?

It is only when you fight with an impulse, suppress an impulse, that it becomes stronger. When you have considered something fully, it becomes easy to quit.

The moment you say, I quit, you become separate, you become the watcher.

You are watching your body filled with desire, your mind filled with desire – but they are not you.

At that moment, you become aware that none of these is you. Once again, you are thrown back upon your Being.

This meditation is excellent to rid yourself of addictions. We have all heard about chain smokers, alcoholics, womanizers, who one day simply quit their addictions and never returned to them. They didn't try to quit – they simply quit, that's all! With this meditation, not only the action, but the urge itself will drop. You don't have to struggle with your addiction because the desire itself will be no more.

'I am not the doer'
