Buddha says, as long as you think there is a do-er, you are still caught
in the wheel of birth and death. Does that mean that you should sit in
bed and not do anything? Well, that’s doing something. In fact, as long
as you are in your body you must do things. So that couldn’t be what
Buddha meant. No, he meant something much farther out. He meant that you
do what you do, but you do not identify with the doing of it. All
‘doing’ is happening as part of the dance of nature…and though your body
and mind speed about their business, you remain in your calm center,
here, where we all are.
