The movie screen a good example. You play a tragedy, the screen does not become miserable. For comedy, is this screen giggling and chuckling? No, not at all. Screen is not excited in an action movie. The screen is not affected by the movie that plays on the screen. Similarly, consciousness is not affected, modified, dramatized, upset, delighted, fulfilled by what appears in consciousness. Mind and body will be affected. Surely what else? Consciousness is open. Notice, like the sky, planes are flying through the sky, up out there, and the clouds are floating through it. Dust is therea floating in the sky. Birds fly through it.
