But afterwards when the desire is satisfied and you have relaxed, the knower and what the knower is aware of become a bit separated and then you can realize it. A third possible condition is when you are relaxed and the knower and that which it is aware of are rather far apart. Then even when a desire is acted out the knower is still aware of it. So the key to all this is the problem of relaxation. When we are relaxed we are able to be aware of the activity of our thoughts, the activity of out desires and of out behavior.
Daily meditation plays an important role.
The success of the daily meditation influences the success of the special meditation. That's because when you're relaxed throughout the day, it facilitates relaxation when you do special meditation. Daily meditation and special meditation are closely tied together, and the one cannot be separated from the other. So we must pay more attention to our daily meditation if we wish to achieve a good special meditation. When your daily meditation is harmonious and stable, then when you do special meditation your thoughts and your desires will not trouble you.
