Mini Mindfulness Break for August 25, 2021

Dear *[FNAME]*:
There’s nothing in life that is not supporting us to choose Life over ego suffering. But we don’t see it. We don’t see it because as Life is unfolding goodness for us we’re zoomed in on conditioned mind as it tells stories of “something wrong” and “not enough.” It’s like being in a movie theatre with two side-by-side screens, one showing “wrong” and one showing “IS.” What we tune in to determines the life we have.

Dear *[FNAME]*:
A DOT IN THE OPEN SKY

We are not complete monsters. We do occasionally smile. We look at someone, and we feel good. It may be only for a short period, but if we cultivate that experience, that dot of goodness, then we find that we have a dot in the open sky. And that very dot is primordial, unconditioned basic goodness.

– Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, Eastern Sun: The Wisdom of Shambhala

Mini Mindfulness Break for July 06, 2020

Open to the World

In order to communicate very openly with the world, you need to develop fundamental trust. This kind of trust is not trusting in something, but simply trusting. To be trusting means you are fundamentally free from doubt about your goodness and about the goodness of others.

Mini Mindfulness Break for May 17, 2020

“We are made for goodness. We are made for love. We are made for friendliness. We are made for togetherness. We are made for all of the beautiful things that you and I know. We are made to tell the world that there are no outsiders. All are welcome: black, white, red, yellow, rich, poor, educated, not educated, male, female, gay, straight, all, all, all. We all belong to this family, this human family, God’s family.”

Mini Mindfulness Break for March 05, 2020

Practice is Planting Seeds

When you plant seeds in the garden, you don’t dig them up every day to see if they have sprouted yet. You simply water them and clear away the weeds; you know that the seeds will grow in time. Similarly, just do your daily practice and cultivate a kind heart. Abandon impatience and instead be content creating the causes for goodness; the results will come when they’re ready.

Mini Mindfulness Break for October 16, 2019

Our Fundamental Goodness

I’ve found that pointing people to their fundamental goodness will awaken it. It’s more skillful than pointing to the negative. We are so loyal to our suffering and to seeing ourselves as damaged that it’s very easy to use spiritual practice to reinforce our self-judgment. That doesn’t help people become liberated.
