00:00:00,031 --> 00:00:00,351
There's one.

2
00:00:00,371 --> 00:00:03,955
While meditating, my mind seems to at times multitask.

3
00:00:05,056 --> 00:00:11,924
I can be staying with the breath, thinking about tomorrow, and being aware that my mind is straying at the same time.

4
00:00:12,745 --> 00:00:14,046
What can be done about this?

5
00:00:17,470 --> 00:00:23,336
Well, it's not at the same time, but you can note it as best you can.

6
00:00:24,838 --> 00:00:29,042
You can only have one experience at any given point.

7
00:00:29,731 --> 00:00:49,697
But hopefully, I think Mahasi Saito addressed that, you know, once you become better with the meditation, you're noting, you know, at some point, your noting sometimes won't be able to keep up, so you just do the best you can with keeping up with the noting and your experience.

8
00:00:49,817 --> 00:00:59,029
And then eventually it'll, you know, be quick enough the more you do it.

9
00:01:03,785 --> 00:01:30,028
I mean don't be so hard on yourself just what you're coming to see is the chaos in the mind this is what will help to shrink the ego to realize that you're really not as clever as you think you are your mind is all chaotic and messed up and when you realize that and you realize that that's inevitable then you don't worry about it you don't on the other hand hate yourself because you see that it's really none of your business

10
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,243
not controllable.
