a Beggar had been sitting by the side of the road for over 30 years. One day, a stranger walked by. Spare some change, mumbled the beggar mechanically, holding out his old baseball cap. I have nothing to give you, said the stranger. Then he asked, What's that you're sitting on? Nothing, replied the beggar, just an old box. I have been sitting on it for as long as I can remember. Ever looked inside? asked the stranger. No, said the beggar. What's the point? There's nothing in there. Have a look inside, insisted the stranger. The beggar managed to pry open the lid. With astonishment, disbelief, and elation, he saw that the box was filled with gold. This parable lays out the very essence of human suffering. We are always looking externally for answers to our problems, for validation, for security, or love, but everything you will ever need can be found within. The solution to all suffering can be found inside our mind because our thoughts are the cause of all suffering in life. Discomfort is inevitable, but suffering is a choice.

There are two types of suffering. One is fear, which derives from our thoughts of the future. What awful scenario might play out? The other is psychological pain, which is derived from negative thoughts of the past. Fear and pain do not live in the present moment. They need our thoughts of the past or future to keep us locked in a prison of the mind. The key to end suffering is to stop thinking. This may sound simple, but have you ever tried to stop thinking for most humans, this is surprisingly difficult. Don't believe it then go ahead. Give it a try, right now. If you're like most people, you likely can't stop thoughts from seeping into your consciousness even when you're actively trying to push them out. So, how do you stop thinking? How do you stop the endless chatter in your head? How do we end the addiction to our thoughts? The way to turn off your thoughts is to understand that you are not your mind. You are not your thoughts. The real you is something far more infinite.

Most of us have been conditioned to think that our mind is who we are, that our past defines what we will be forever. But our thoughts about ourselves are merely the ego. The ego is a very peculiar thing. It's a survival mechanism that will do whatever it takes to protect itself. This is why so many people get upset when they are wrong. They believe that their thoughts are their identity. If their thoughts are proven wrong, then their identity gets broken. However, if you understand that you are not your thoughts, you detach yourself from the limiting beliefs of the ego. The mind is a ceaselessly working survival tool, like your heart or your guts. All these organs are part of us, and we're aware of their effects. We can even sometimes feel them move within us, but the mind is the only one we put on a pedestal, claiming, This is me. If it were true though, what exactly is putting your mind on a pedestal? If we can point a finger at our minds, then who's pointing the finger? You are something that encompasses your mind, and your true self has far greater reach.

You can become free of your obsessive thoughts, fears, and pain through two practices. Number one, listen to your constantly thinking mind. Become a witness to your mind. This establishes you as an entity beyond it, separate yourself from your thoughts. Simply observe your thoughts as if they are clouds floating by in a blue sky. Be careful not to judge the thoughts your mind churns out. Judging is a thinking act, a mind act. If you find yourself calling your thoughts stupid or smart, good or bad, right or wrong. You're not being you but splitting your mind into two. Setting it against itself. Just listen to your thoughts. Be with them, pay full attention to them, then let them pass without claiming or rejecting them. They are not you as you consciously experience them. You will find yourself no longer identifying yourself as your mind. You are that consciousness. Eckhart Tolle writes, The beginning of freedom is the realization that you are not the thinker. The moment you start watching the thinker, a higher level of consciousness becomes activated. You then begin to realize that there is a vast realm of intelligence beyond thought.

That thought is only a tiny aspect of that intelligence. You also realize that all the things that truly matter: Beauty, love, creativity, joy, inner peace, arise from beyond the mind. You begin to awaken. Number two, being conscious of the now. That is everything around you in this moment: Your surroundings, your body, the input your senses sent to your brain, your own activities. These are the now. As in the first exercise, don't judge these experiences, just experience them. If you are sitting in a chair, feel the chair beneath your thighs. Notice the length or curve of your spine. Is your leg bouncing or still? Are your feet apart or together? Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have. Make the now the primary focus of your life. Now is all there ever is. There is no past or future, except as memory or anticipation in your mind. So the next time you see a tree, look at it as if you're seeing a tree for the first time. Really observe the shape of the branches, the feel of the bark, the sound of the breeze flowing through the leaves.

Observe the tree with every sense. Don't take a picture, don't analyze or compare, don't wish for anything to be different. Each of these thoughts takes your attention away from the beauty itself. Just observe. This is the art of being present. This is the power of now. Anytime you feel negativity creep into your mind, ask yourself, Am I being present? This question alone will cause you to become present and in the present moment. Suffering does not exist.

거지의 비유: 인간의 고통에 대한 교훈

30년 동안 상자 위에 앉아 있던 거지가 상자 안에 금이 가득 차 있다는 것을 발견하고, 우리에게 필요한 모든 것은 그 안에 있다는 교훈을 얻게 됩니다.

인간의 고통은 우리 자신의 생각으로 인해 발생하며, 미래에 대한 두려움과 과거의 심리적 고통으로 이어집니다.

고통을 끝내기 위한 열쇠는 끝없는 마음의 수다를 멈추고 우리가 우리의 생각이 아니라는 것을 깨닫는 것입니다.

자아에 대한 이해 제한적인 신념으로부터 자유로워지기

에고는 사람들이 종종 자신의 정체성으로 착각하는 생존 메커니즘으로, 자신의 생각이 도전받을 때 혼란을 초래합니다.

에크하르트 톨레가 제안한 것처럼 끊임없이 생각하는 마음을 판단 없이 관찰하면 에고와 자신을 분리하고 생각 너머의 더 큰 의식을 깨달을 수 있습니다.

이 수행을 통해 개인은 강박적인 생각과 두려움에서 벗어나 궁극적으로 자신이 자신의 마음에 의해 정의되지 않는다는 것을 깨닫게 됩니다.

지금이 주는 힘: 마음챙김을 위한 가이드

아름다움, 사랑, 내면의 평화는 마음 너머에서 비롯되며 각성과 의식으로 이어집니다.

판단 없이 주변 환경과 감각적 경험에 집중하면서 현재 순간을 온전히 의식하는 것이 강조됩니다.

방해받지 않고 현재 순간을 관찰하는 연습은 현재의 힘을 경험하고 부정적 감정을 없애는 열쇠로 강조됩니다.
