The Art of Accomplishment

INSIGHT

Pleasure as Noticing Sensations

  • Pleasure is the noticing of sensations in the body, without assigning positive or negative value.
  • This awareness can be cultivated through practices like meditation.
  • It's possible to experience pleasure all the time, simply by noticing sensations in everyday actions and the breath.
  • Once this is realized, the pursuit of pleasure shifts from external chasing to internal awareness; however, it's surprisingly easy to forget this and revert to avoidance, even though constant pleasure is available.
