Truth is Outside


Truth is outside, but ordinary person is always being conditioned to stay inside/the mind, thats why his progress is slow to reach Nibbana.
To grasp the truth, a person must train to use his body only, not his mind.
When there is sighting coming to him, let the work being done by the eye and the brain, not the mind.
When there is hearing coming to him, let the work being done by the ear and the brain, not the mind.
When there are aromas coming to him, let the work being done by the nose and the brain, not the mind.
When there is sounds coming to him, let the work being done by the ear and the brain, not the mind.
When there is flavors coming to him, let the work being done by the tongue and the brain, not the mind.
When there are sensations coming to him, let the work being done by the body and the brain, not the mind.
When there is thought coming to him, let the work being done by the brain, not the mind.

When you stay inside, the mind:
- Will perceiving any of your senses experiences.
- Will judging it into by liking it or disliking it.
- Will aware the truth, and falsely thinking it is the center of all creation.

When you stay outside, the mind:
- Will go out to check what we do.
- Will try to arrange itself again into a complete mind (ideas feelings perception awareness).
- Finally will cease by itself because it failed to find new reason to attach again with forms to create links of life.
