Restless in the Mountains
Some time ago, I asked one of my teachers, Gil Fronsdal, when I was feeling restless in my meditation what the “restlessness” was about. He said it could be a form of greed, which is one of the three states of mind that cause suffering (greed, hatred and delusion) according to Buddha. When I’m restless, my mind is usually telling me all the things I should do, places I should go, and people I should talk to and not having a good plan to accomplish them. That sense of “not enough” feels certainly like greed.
