When we bear witness, when we become the situation – homelessness, poverty, illness, violence, death – the right action arises by itself… Peacemaking is the functioning of bearing witness. Once we listen with our entire body and mind, loving action arises.

Spiritual practice is a bit like riding a bicycle.
Once you have learnt how to cycle there is no need to go over the theory behind how the gears work or the best height for your saddle every time you go for a ride. All you have to do is get on your bike and start pedalling. And the key to this practice is to do the best you can and don’t worry too much about whether what you are doing is right or wrong; eventually you will get the hang of it. – Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

CONSCIOUSNESS IS LIKE A COMPUTER
We have consciousness, and this consciousness is like a computer. A computer does not work by itself; somebody controls the computer. Our consciousness also does not make itself work; “something” controls our consciousness. Then our consciousness makes science. So this something controls consciousness, and consequently science. This something is not science, not consciousness, but has consciousness and science. So I say to you, if you attain this something, you understand consciousness and understand science. The name for that is Zen. – from Only Don’t Know by Zen Master Seung Sahn |

Let Go of Labels
By becoming attached to names and forms, not realizing that they have no more basis than the activities of the mind itself, error arises and the way to emancipation is blocked. – The Buddha, “Absolute Relativity” |
