Thanissaro Bhikkhu "Patience & Curiosity"


"As you meditate, try to think about any particular skill you’ve mastered, and think about the lessons you learned in terms of patience and curiosity, how to use desire to be a help in the skill, and not a hindrance, how much you should try to push things, and get a sense of when you’re pushing too hard.
This involves all of the bases for success: desire, persistence, intent, and your analytical powers. Think about how you applied them in learning that skill and how you found balance among them, and then see if you can apply the same lessons to working with the breath.
