A heightened state of awareness comes when we look, and then look again, and then relax into whatever situation we are in. When we have a capacity for fascination with simple things, we are able to sit peacefully for hours on a park bench, or in an airport, engrossed by the different gaits and gestures of people as they walk, talk, and stand. We develop the ability to be patient as we stand in line at the grocery store because we have the ability to look with fascination and wonder at all that surrounds us.

In the face of circumstances that drive others to madness, awakened people

have a kind of calmness and serenity inside them. They're in charge of how

they react. They're not calculating, they're not cold, they're not emotionless

people—they simply know how not to make negative assessments of the

world and what's in it. They practice having healthy reactions to whatever

happens, rather than practicing ego-driven behavior.
