I was blessed to see the wonderful Kirtan Wallah, Krishna Das speak. His humor, humility, and fierce heart inspired me deeply.
I‘m often reminded of something he said,
“You can’t think yourself out of a box made by thought.”
This idea has helped when my mind has been tangled in it’s certainty that thinking is the only way to find resolution. It’s what we can find in meditation practice, that the path to clarity lights up when we let go, and find that the box of thought disappears with an exhale, and what we’re left with is wide open space.
