Liberation on Arising: The Secret of Mental Stillness

  • Summary

  • "Self-liberation on arising" describes the natural dissolution of thoughts, feelings, and sensations when the mind refrains from grasping, elaborating, or fixating on them. Mental appearances arise and pass naturally, but fixation extends their lifespan, leading to suffering and distraction. This cycle detaches us from present experience and immerses us in past stories. By observing mental activity without entanglement, we allow these fleeting appearances to dissolve like writing on water—momentary and transient. True mental stillness arises not from suppressing thoughts but through understanding their ephemeral nature, fostering lasting peace, clarity, and freedom.
