"To remain stable is to refrain from trying to separate yourself
from a pain because you know that you cannot. Running away from fear is fear,
fighting pain is pain, trying to be brave is being scared. If the mind is in
pain, the mind is pain. The thinker has no other form than his thought. There is
no escape.".
