The Importance of Unprompted Mindfulness

It's a very rare person who can abide uninterruptedly in unprompted or unfabricated mindfulness without the support at times of appropriate effort. As our efforts bear fruit, as we put in the effort, we cultivate the mindfulness, it begins to become unprompted and by itself. We actually experience times in our practice of great ease. And at that time, our work is to let go, is to surrender.
