We all need a place that is safe and wholesome enough for us to return for refuge. In Buddhism, that refuge is mindfulness.

Most of us experience a life full of wonderful moments and difficult moments. But for many of us, even when we are most joyful, there is fear behind our joy.

Mindfulness must be engaged. Once there is seeing, there must be acting. Otherwise, what's the use of seeing?

The more we see, the more we understand. The more we understand, the easier it is for us to have compassion and love. Understanding is the source of love. Understanding is love itself. Understanding is another name for love; love is another name for understanding.

Mindfulness is the miracle by which we master and restore ourselves.

At any moment, you have a choice, that either leads you closer to your spirit or further away from it.

People deal too much with the negative, with what is wrong. Why not try and see positive things, to just touch those things and make them bloom?
