Very important thought MamaSageWalker
Everyone has their own path to quieting the mind hoping to discover the Great Oneness only found in the nothingness. Liz may find to in the warmth of a content kitty. Others may find it in their music, holding a child, in a passionate moment with a lover or in the eyes of someone they deeply trust. I have found it canoeing in the wilderness.
It becomes very difficult to quiet the mind that is allowed to rampage about with no discipline. For some it is helpful to learn meditation, the discipline of quieting the mind.
I believe the greatest things of importance are: to be of service to others and to quiet the mind.
