Homework
This week notice the desiring mind. Look where your eyes alight during the day and see if there is a desire playing through your glance or gaze. See if you can notice the discontentment behind the desire. Are you looking out there so you won’t have to feel in here? Explore this discontentment thoroughly. Desiring is sustained by giving something exaggerated significance. Drop the charged thinking and just look at the desired object directly. Is it really that important or beautiful? Throughout the week ask yourself, “Where is true contentment in this moment?”
