“Peace comes from within. Which is awkward, because so does indigestion. Learn the difference.”
Stillness and discomfort both rise from the same hidden space. One nourishes calm; the other bubbles up like a badly-timed reminder of lunch. The art is in learning to tell spiritual wisdom from stomach complaints.
Calm vs. Chaos
Peace whispers; indigestion grumbles. One invites rest, the other forces attention. Both demand listening, though not to the same end.
The Lesson in Discernment
Not every feeling that stirs inside is enlightenment. Some are gas. Wisdom is knowing which to sit with and which to excuse yourself from politely.
Practical Guidance
Check the source: Ask whether your unrest is spirit or stomach.
Respond wisely: Meditation may not fix what peppermint tea can.
Stay light: Don’t mistake every internal ripple for revelation.
Today’s Practice
Today, sit quietly — and notice whether it’s your soul or your sandwich speaking.
