You are a Buddha, and so is everyone else. I didn't make that up. It was the Buddha himself who said so. He said that all beings had the potential to become awakened. To practice walking meditation is to practice living in mindfulness. Mindfulness and enlightenment are one. Enlightenment leads to mindfulness and mindfulness leads to enlightenment.

With mindfulness, you can establish yourself in the present in order to touch the wonders of life that are available in that moment.

Happiness does not come from consumption of things.

As we cultivate peace and happiness in ourselves, we also nourish peace and happiness in those we love.

If you suffer and make your loved ones suffer, there is nothing that can justify your desire.

To dwell in the here and now does not mean you never think about the past or responsibly plan for the future. The idea is simply not to allow yourself to get lost in regrets about the past or worries about the future. If you are firmly grounded in the present moment, the past can be an object of inquiry, the object of your mindfulness and concentration. You can attain many insights by looking into the past. But you are still grounded in the present moment.

Breathing in, there is only the present moment. Breathing out, it is a wonderful moment.
