We need a “Social Dharma’ to care for our common home.
This Social Dharma must reach across our different cultures and
Buddhist traditions. That means to care for our bodies,
our communities, and our planet.”
– Sensei Hozan Alan Senauke

| “In order to develop our mind, we must look at a deeper level. Everyone seeks happiness, joyfulness, but from outside–from money, from power, from big car, from big house. Most people never pay much attention to the ultimate source of a happy life, which is inside, not outside.”
– His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Tibet House

| Mindfulness Reconnects Us With Our Center |
 These words of wisdom from George Mumford teach us how mindfulness reconnects us with our center and the space between stimulus and response. His work with athletes is quite well known. Think about the eye of a hurricane, or the calm still center in the middle of a cyclone. … |

“This body of mine will disintegrate, but my actions will continue me… If you think I am only this body, then you have not truly seen me. When you look at my friends, you see my continuation. When you see someone walking with mindfulness and compassion, you know he is my continuation. I don’t see why we have to say “I will die,” because I can already see myself in you, in other people, and in future generations.
Even when the cloud is not there, it continues as snow or rain. It is impossible for the cloud to die. It can become rain or ice, but it cannot become nothing. The cloud does not need to have a soul in order to continue. There’s no beginning and no end. I will never die. There will be a dissolution of this body, but that does not mean my death.
I will continue, always.”
– Thich Nhat Hanh, MMTCP

| Handling our suffering is an art. If we know how to suffer, we suffer much less, and we’re no longer afraid of being overwhelmed by the suffering inside.

| The answer must be, I think, that beauty and grace are performed whether or not we will or sense them. The least we can do is try to be there.

| Every Moment Is Absolute
Every moment in life is absolute in itself. That’s all there is. There is nothing other than this present moment; there is no past, there is no future; there is nothing but this. So when we don’t pay attention to each little this, we miss the whole thing.
