Fantasy Explusion

 In trying to meditate, how do you banish fantasies that crop up in your imagination?  Waylessness.  Don’t try to get rid of the distraction, or try to get somewhere.  The mystic way is ‘no way.”  Fantasies, and all things that distract us from peace, are always going somewhere in the imagination.  Fantasies, though unreal, always have some purpose.  They are trying to take us to some place of fulfillment or disaster.  All unreal in this moment of meditation.  So when I sit, I try not to have some purpose or goal.  Ultimate Reality does the heavy lifting.  I am on the way to no place, that is really some place when I arrive.
