The things you struggle so hard to get or avoid don't actually come to you. You go to them. So let your thoughts about these things be still. The things themselves are quiet and motionless. They make no noise at all. When you see this, all your chasing and running away will stop.
The things themselves (which either to get or to avoid thou art put to so much trouble) come not unto thee themselves; but thou in a manner goest unto them. Let then thine own judgment and opinion concerning those things be at rest; and as for the things themselves, they stand still and quiet, without any noise or stir at all; and so shall all pursuing and flying cease.
