Mini Mindfulness Break for November 03, 2018

A poor man asked the Buddha,
“Why am I so poor?”
The Buddha said, “You did not learn to give.”
So the poor man said, “But, if I don’t have anything to give?”
The Buddha said, “You have a few things:
The Face, which can give a smile;
The Mouth, you can praise or comfort others;
The Heart, it can open up to others;
The Eyes, they can look at the other with the eyes of compassion;
The Body, which can be used to help others.”

– H.E. Tulku Yeshi Rinpoche, Bodhi Tree Leaf

May you be free from suffering and the causes of suffering!

All my best,
