Question: When practicing walking meditation, she usually look down onto the floor. She feels that the floor is very alive, for example, normally the floor is very flat, but she could somehow see that the floor is moving, and changing from moment to moment. She wants to ask if there is something not normal in her or her practice.
That is natural in practicing meditation. Whatever we know or see is concerned with the mind. If the mind is not stable, the thing or knowing is not stable. Not the floor is moving, the mind is unstable. Thats why we need to practice the mind to be stable and pure. If you are not mindful, you cant understand the truth of the mind. Only when you are mindful, you can understand the truth of the mind.
Mindfulness and detachment are the cause of wisdom and enlightenment.
Ignorance and attachment is the cause of no wisdom and enlightenment. So you practice more and more to know about wisdom and enlightenment. In this way, you can know more and more about unstable or impure mind. The anger in the mind can misunderstand the mind, something or someone is to be angry. In fact, the anger in the mind is real problems.
The attachment in the mind can create misunderstandings in the mind that someone or something is likeable or loveable, lovely. In fact, the greed in the mind is the cause of the problem. Ignorance in the mind can create something or someone as real. In fact, only ignorance create something or someone, living beings or non living beings as real.
Whatever we know, whatever we see, smell, it is created by our ignorance and attachment. nothing is real, no one is real. only ignorance and attachment is real. Ignorance can create anything anyone. The real meditation is trying to know the truth of ignorance and attachment at the present moment. In this way, there will be less and less ignorance and attachment in the mind.
You should detach from everything. Because of attachment, it appears like this. If there is no attachment, it will not appear like this.
