To ascribe the cause of inner evil to something outside oneself is immature, infantile. I have no time for that. When my foot is cut by coral, I must immediately fix it. It hurts like mad. I only want instantaneous relief.
I have become one with the problem, which is like becoming one with the wave. This means that "I" is not there. It means the mind is absolutely tranquil, absolutely peaceful, and therefore transparent.
I suppose you have enjoyed this at sometime in your life, although these occasions are rare. There is no difference felt between "you" and "me". In such moments the mind is quiet and calm, so completely transparent, that you can look through it.
In that transparent mind, you see the play of thoughts. The thoughts are still there. "I" am not thinking, but the thoughts are there. There is a tremendous intelligence ever active in you. A wonderful intelligence is built into every cell of your being. I am merely witnessing. I am becoming aware of this flow of thoughts, like a river.
