The End of All Ends

From Ajahn "The Super Monk" Brahmavamso #2

Ajahn hold up a cup of water, and says ," I have practice meditation for such a long time, do you all think I could keep the cup still in the air?" After a while, "Is it still in the air?" Everyone laughed.

"Now it is still." He puts it down at the table, "Buddha has a great way in teaching this, don't impose our thinking on something, wanting them to change, just let it be the way it is, accept it as it is. When you stop the wanting, the suffering stops as well."
