STEP 8 TODAY I WILL BE STILL.

IN YOUR TWO MEDITATION PRACTICES TODAY, practice stillness for 15 minutes. Begin by taking three deep breaths and then focusing on an internal point. It may be an imaginary point or it may be a point in your physical body. With eyes closed, simply give this your full attention, without judgment and evaluation. Do not be discouraged if early attempts prove difficult. Beginning anything important in life can be difficult at first, but if you persist, you will achieve this great goal, for in stillness all things can be known.

在今天的两次冥想练习中，练习保持静止15分钟。开始时深呼吸三次，然后专注于一个内部点。这个点可以是想象中的，也可以是你身体的某个部位。闭上眼睛，简单地全神贯注于此，不加评判和评价。如果早期尝试很困难，不要灰心。在生命中开始任何重要的事情，在一开始都是困难的，但如果你坚持下去，你将会实现这个伟大的目标，因为在静止中，所有事物都可以被知晓。
