  • Falling into spiritual self-absorption
  • The conditions which cause the arising of restlessness and worry
  • Examining all situations with the eye of wisdom
  • The physical energies of restlessness and worry
  • Making the mind wind and open or focusing the mind more microscopically

  • Excessive striving and our tendency to self-judge
  • Letting go of the past, future, and present
