A Meditation on No Friction

Look around the room. How much effort did that take? How much friction did you feel in your visual experience as you moved from looking at one spot to another? Not much right? Or perhaps none.

 

Can you imagine having the same degree of frictionlessness in all your experience - thoughts, emotions, physical sensations. Well, that's how everything already is. You experience something and then it goes away. You finish a task and you move on to something else. Nothing in your experience can get stuck. Notice that.

 

There is no friction in your experience. It is easy. It flows like a river. There's no way to get stuck. No matter what happens, it moves right away. This is freedom. You've already got it.
