You have to keep moving

These levels of silence are realities that we encounter, and with practice we come to recognise. The important thing is to keep the work going through all levels. Even if we find ourselves like in a traffic jam or we are blocked, we just keep going. If you are in a traffic jam on a highway, it’s very frustrating, but you can’t just get out of the car and leave the car there. You have to keep moving, maybe inch by inch, till it opens up. You didn’t know what it was that was causing the blockage, the jam. So it’s like in our own psyche – we have accidents, we have mistakes, we have problems which we have to work through.
