It is so easy once you understand. It is so simple and direct. When pleasant things arise, understand that they are empty. When unpleasant things arise, see that they are not yours. They pass away. Don't relate to them as being you, or see yourself as the owner of them.
You think that papaya trees is yours, then why don't you feel hurt when it is cut down? If you can understand this, then the mind come into balance. When the mind come into balance, then this is the correct path, the correct teaching of Buddha, and the teaching leads to liberation.
- Non-self 。No Ajahn Chah
