Mini Mindfulness Break for February 11, 2021

Dear *[FNAME]*:
A world small enough for egocentric karmic conditioning/self-hate to control is not nearly large enough for a human being who is awake. As we wake up we become more curious, open, adventuresome, eager to see everything that’s possible for us. We don’t care about knowing. What’s known is dead. Known is the world of karmic conditioning. We want thisherenow, a moment that is brand new, fleeting, and thrilling.

Dear *[FNAME]*:
You don’t beat yourself up. Egocentric karmic conditioning/self-hate does that. The proof of that? If you were doing it, you’d stop. But you can’t stop. You can’t stop because you’re not doing it.

Dear *[FNAME]*:
The way the self arrays itself is the form of the entire world. See each thing in this entire world as a moment of time. Things do not hinder one another, just as moments do not hinder one another. The way-seeking mind arises in this moment. A way-seeking moment arises in this mind. It is the same with practice and with attaining the way. Thus the self setting itself out in array sees itself. This is the understanding that the self is time.

– Eihei Dogen, Trans. Kaz Tanahashi

Mini Mindfulness Break for December 14, 2020

Dear *[FNAME]*:
Buddhism is not a fixed body of dogma (like perhaps some other
religions). It has always been transformed by its interactions with
those cultures into which it has moved; at the same time, those
cultures have been transformed by their interaction with Buddhism. So
the style of the teaching reflects Buddhism’s creative capacity to
interact with a culture in a way that makes it available to that
culture, but at the same time it remains true to its own principles
and its own pattern. Stephen Batchelor

The art of dharma practice requires commitment, technical
accomplishment, and imagination. As with all arts, we will fail to
realize its full potential if any of these three are lacking. The raw
material of dharma practice is ourself and our world, which are to be
understood and transformed according to the vision and values of the
dharma itself. This is not a process of self- or world- transcendence,
but one of self- and world- creation. The denial of “self” challenges
only the notion of a static self independent of body and mind–not the
ordinary sense of ourself as a person distinct from everyone else. The
notion of a static self is the primary obstruction to the realization
of our unique potential as an individual being. By dissolving this
fiction through a centered vision of the transiency, ambiguity, and
contingency of experience, we are freed to create ourself anew.

Mini Mindfulness Break for December 13, 2020

Dear *[FNAME]*:
Every born Wayfinder goes through stages of self-realization: loneliness, striving, disappointment, surrender, release, and then the slow awakening to a world where magic is real and miracles commonplace. The journey is worth it.

Mini Mindfulness Break for December 02, 2020

;

Dear *[FNAME]*:
We just keep choosing to practice awareness and expanded awareness is our reward. The more we see and realize, the more expansive our lives are. We learn “how we cause ourselves to suffer” (being in relationship with egocentric karmic conditioning/self-hate), and we learn to disidentify from that relationship and come back to the peace, joy, and clarity of thisherenow.

Dear *[FNAME]*:
Shedding Self-Protective Clinging

Too often Buddhist ‘nonattachment’ is misconstrued as ‘non-loving.’ The purpose of Buddhist practice is not to ‘renounce’ our families or community, but to shed habits of self-protective clinging that prevent us from loving them more unconditionally, powerfully, enjoyably.

– Lama John Makransky, “Family Practice”

Dear *[FNAME]*:
Teach by Example

It is not by preaching or expounding the sutras (scriptures) that you fulfill the task of awakening others to self-realization; it is rather by the way you walk, the way you stand, the way you sit and the way you see things.

Mini Mindfulness Break for September 05, 2020

The Light of Reality

The sense of self creates a feeling of solidity, like the apparent solidity of the clouds veiling the face of the sun, but at certain moments a gap is opened up, through which we may receive a glimpse of the light of reality.
