 Don’t Strive for Escape
The world of worries we wish to escape from in the beginning of Buddhist practice is found to be enlightenment itself in the end. We don’t understand this, of course, and so we keep striving for a distant, idealized kind of Buddhahood, only to reach its threshold and be turned back the way we came. – Clark Strand, “Worry Beads” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Becoming Silence Itself
In order to be in relationship with the sacred, we must be willing to become still and quiet. We must be willing to be, if only for a short while, silence itself. – Vanessa Zuisei Goddard, “The Places We Go to Be Here” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 What Do I See?

 There are thousands of visible stars. It is the mind’s eye that sees Orion the Hunter, Cassiopeia the vain queen, and a Saucepan, or is it a Big Bear? Right and wrong, good and bad, beautiful and ugly are not real. They are also what conditioned mind makes up. So, when we find something unacceptable we want to remember that in practice we are not asked to condone or agree with unconsciousness, injustice, or evil. We are asked, as a first step, to examine the conditioning that creates the division of acceptable and unacceptable.
