HSEP32: 🤨 Why Worry When You Can Meditate?

Tiger shares an insightful perspective on the infinite worlds of worry that we can get caught up in. He explains that we are not actually worried about reality, but our mental content. He encourages us to come back to the present moment and to recognize that the answer to our worries is in the disappearance of the question. Tiger also points out that the mind's content can be quite threatening to the ego, and encourages us to not believe so much in our worries. He suggests that we explore the concept of meditation as something that can happen all the time, not just as an activity to get a particular outcome. Ultimately, he reminds us that the more we understand the authentic nature of meditation, the more profound the benefits.
