The bulk of my work will be internal—meditation, contemplation, and practicing right action. The main work is inner work. It is mind work. It involves mastering meditation, which develops mindfulness, concentration, and mental stability. It involves deep thinking or contemplation to develop understanding, which also benefits from mindfulness. It involves practicing compassion in daily life, the ultimate application of mindfulness and contemplation (understanding leads to compassion). This inner work also includes taking care of my physical body.
Outer work, which involves sharing, connecting, and facilitating, bring the boost that inner work needs. Outer work enhances inner work. They enhance the positive emotions generated by pure inner work. One can say that we fulfill our inner work fully by performing our outer work.
