Today, we are dependent on so many things. My WiFi connection is not working. I am agitated and stressed. I am writing my blog but I cannot seek all the information I am looking for. Plus, I have to mail it. Is it not ridiculous? My need for information. Why can I not be still and look at my sleeping cat? Who woke up, when I clicked her picture.

I pride myself on doing multitasking. I am really surprised. I could sit still.

Dear ones, I am sure many of you feel this way. I guess it comes from wanting to be in control. My locus of control has become external at the moment.

I read this quote today. It is a Zen Koan. A Koan is a paradoxical riddle, story or question in Zen Buddhism, designed to stop logical thinking and trigger intuitive enlightenment (Kensho) by challenging the mind with unsolvable problems.

Two monks, argue if the flag or the wind is moving. A third says, “Not the wind, not the flag: the mind is moving.”

As a Sadhaka I looked upon the Koan as saying that it is thoughts in our mind, which keep our mind fidgeting.
