The Importance of Stillness

If the mind is disciplined, the heart turns quickly from fear to love. The insights we seek are often buried and rarely obvious. We need to be able to look deeply to perceive what others are unable to. For brief moments, we are able to get there. And when we're there, we find ourselves capable of things we didn't even know were possible. But that stillness is often fleeting. Why? Because it is undermined by disturbances elsewhere,. not just the surrounding world, but also inside us in our spirit and physical bodies.
