 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. |

 Nature’s Perspective
Animals are people, too. As are plants. And water. And soil. This is the fundamental insight at the heart of all eco-spiritual work. But to get that insight, we have to get with the big picture. To get that insight, we have to climb a tree. – Clark Strand, “Trees, Butterflies, and the Buddhist Moral Life “ Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Overshooting the Mark
The problem is that when people practice meditation–especially since we’re all almost all converts–of necessity that involves, at least in the early years, a sort of neurotic investment of energy. It doesn’t accomplish anything. You sort of overshoot the mark…. Sometimes, aiming lower you accomplish more. – Clark Strand, “Haiku Mind” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Happiness is Best Shared
Happiness is not happiness unless it is shared. For happiness is the one thing in all the world that comes to us only at the moment we give it, and is likewise increased by being given away. – Clark Strand, “The Wisdom of Frogs” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |
