You don’t control the bike by speeding up your thoughts. The mind, like a bicycle, doesn’t need more force β€” it needs balance. Clarity comes from relaxed attention, not from accelerating cognition.
Concept It’s like playing with shadows on the wall: β€’ A rabbit shadow πŸ‡ can scare a child. β€’ But it isn’t a real rabbit: it’s only a projection of light and shape. β€’ Concepts are those shadows: useful for playing, but they should not be mistaken for what is real.

Two people look at the same storm β›ˆοΈ: One feels fear: β€œIt’s going to destroy everything!” Another feels beauty: β€œHow majestic nature is.” Did the storm change? No. πŸ‘‰ What changed is the mind that interprets it. So, what we experience is not β€œthe storm itself,” but our own inner relationship with it.
Experience is an interdependent processβ€”ever-changing, without fixed essence, yet full of effects and impact. Seeing this clearly helps us avoid clinging or rejecting. Instead, we move through life with greater lightness, flow, and freedom.

We enjoyed a wonderful day in Switzerland on a small budget. With 20 CHF for gas and 50 CHF for healthy snacks and drinks, we spent only 70 CHF in total. From 9:00 to 15:50, including a 1 hour 45 minutes car drive, we had an amazing day!
