Yogi: I asked Sayadaw to teach me how I could practice consistently. Sayadaw told me whenever I see, touch, hear or drive to know that seeing, touching, hearing and driving are happening, and to keep on knowing.
At first, it was difficult and my mind was tense; later when I just relaxed and ‘touch-and-go’ whatever was happening, the mind changed and I understood more about the activities of the mind. The more I followed what Sayadaw taught, the more understanding arose.
Sayadaw: The good thing is that you wanted to follow the instructions diligently. You just try to follow instructions; that’s all.
You weren’t thinking about not getting the result or questioning if you were doing it right or wrong.
You try your best to follow instructions and that’s why it works.
The difference between you and the yogis who say that they can't practice at home is that you’re obedient and diligent in following instructions.
