Generosity Needs No Reason

Generosity might be strategically effective or virtuous, but that’s not important. The point is that there is no good reason to love life or each other, yet we do.

“The Dharma is not fancy.
It’s like blue jeans: good for every occasion, everyday. It’s good for
work. It’s good for school.
You can wear blue jeans
to a wedding, to ride horses, whatever.”

Mini Mindfulness Break for April 13, 2020

Recently I’ve been pondering a process I call “bewilderment”–or, as I like to pronounce it, be-wilder-ment. It’s like enlightenment, but way less ambitious. I figure if we all become a little wilder, a little more present, a little more connected to whatever it is that makes dogs so damn happy, we’ll feel better and do better things. The first step in the bewilderment process, upon which everything else depends, is simple: CALM DOWN.

Because suffering is impermanent, that is why we can transform it. Because happiness is impermanent, that is why we have to nourish it.

Let Yourself Be

Everything in nature has a physical body, yet a rock doesn’t call itself a rock or a flower call itself a flower. Only humans are stuck on how they should be. The healthiest way of being is to have no need to explain our being, but for it to manifest naturally.

Mini Mindfulness Break for April 10, 2020

Each act is a rite, a ceremony. Raising your cup of tea to your mouth is a rite. Does the word “rite” seem too solemn? I use that word in order to jolt you into the realization of the life-and-death matter of awareness.

Mini Mindfulness Break for April 07, 2020

With each moment, no matter what is going on, the practice is to find the willingness, the courage, the faith, the compassion simply to come back to the present, come back to this heart, come back to this person – not give up just because it’s difficult.
