Mini Mindfulness Break for November 02, 2020

Dear *[FNAME]*:
Work with Whatever Arises

When we sit in meditation, we sit in the midst of our own opposites: our strengths and weaknesses, our desires and dislikes. In doing so, we express a willingness to work with everything that arises in the field of our own mind.

– Noelle Oxenhandler, “The Buddha’s Robe”

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!

Mini Mindfulness Break for October 16, 2018

Our Highest Intentions

No matter what situation we find ourselves in, we can always set our compass to our highest intentions in the present moment. Perhaps it is nothing more than being in a heated conversation with another person and stopping to take a breath and ask yourself, ‘What is my highest intention in this moment?’ If you can have enough awareness to take this small step, your heart will give you an answer that will take the conversation in a different, more positive direction.

– Jack Kornfield, “Set the Compass of Your Heart”

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