Overshooting the Mark
The problem is that when people practice meditation–especially since we’re all almost all converts–of necessity that involves, at least in the early years, a sort of neurotic investment of energy. It doesn’t accomplish anything. You sort of overshoot the mark…. Sometimes, aiming lower you accomplish more. – Clark Strand, “Haiku Mind” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

The First Step
For white America, [the] systematic undoing of centuries of racial indoctrination, [the] letting go of the ‘conceptual paint’ it has uncritically absorbed about black Americans, is the necessary first step toward the epistemological humility and egoless listening we are morally obliged to bring to our encounters with all Others. Another name for such selfless, healing listening is love. – Charles Johnson, “Every 28 Hours” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

“What’s the point of walking meditation? Why do I practice sitting meditation? Because I like it. There’s no point doing these practices if you don’t enjoy them. It’s not hard labour. Every breath can bring us peace, joy and freedom.”

Each act is a rite, a ceremony. Raising your cup of tea to your mouth is a rite. Does the word “rite” seem too solemn? I use that word in order to jolt you into the realization of the life-and-death matter of awareness.

This was not simply the act of one very disturbed young man. It has its roots in racial violence and distortions and inequities that have been part of the fabric of our country since its inception…We need to be willing to see how we are part of the causes and conditions, and not separate from them… This work is actually about mutual liberation.

What you encounter, recognize or discover depends to a large degree on the quality of your approach. Many of the ancient cultures practiced careful rituals of approach. An encounter of depth and spirit was preceded by careful preparation. When we approach with reverence, great things decide to approach us. Our real life comes to the surface and its light awakens the concealed beauty in things. When we walk on the earth with reverence, beauty will decide to trust us. The rushed heart and arrogant mind lack the gentleness and patience to enter that embrace.
