✨ There’s a saying in these contemplative teachings … it’s all just turtles or monkeys up and down. “Sensations up, sensations down" to put it more accurately. This pointing refers to the practice of deconstructing all experience into its raw sensory components to avoid getting caught in habitual psychological loops of our DFM’s (default network modes).

We are driven by the "flavor" or “feeling tone” (Vedena in Vippassana) of our sensations. We naturally pull toward the pleasant and push away the unpleasant, which creates loops of craving and aversion … Klesha’s (patterns) that create Dukkha (suffering).

“One Taste” is a high-level state of Equanimity. The “taste” when you realize that whether a sensation is "up" (pleasant/intense) or "down" (unpleasant/quiet), it is ultimately made of the same "stuff" - energy in motion.

By noticing "sensations up" or "sensations down," you are using what Shinzen (the science of enlightenment) calls Sensory Clarity. You divide a complex emotional "loop" into smaller pieces (just monkeys 🐒 up/down or turtles 🐢 up/down ). Or SENSUALITY (how we make sense of reality).

And, there’s no better way to notice and glean insights into these loops, (Monkeys/Turtles/Sensations) than to taste them then in Daily Life practice.

So 🤔✨what are your favorite daily life practices?!?!
