Transforming this ordinary life...

"How can we live in the present moment, live right now with the people around us, helping to lessen their suffering (and our own) and making their lives happier? How? The answer is this: We must practice mindfulness."

Trusting this ordinary life...

"It is always more beautiful here, wherever I am, than any story of a future or a past. The here and now is where I can make a difference. It's what I live out of. Nothing more is required."

--Byron Katie, from a Thousand Names for Joy

"Why should you meditate?

First of all, because each of us needs to realize total rest. Even a night of sleep doesn't provide total rest. Watch your breath, let go of everything else, release every muscle in your body. After 15 minutes or so it is possible to reach deep quiet. "

--adapted from The Miracle of Mindfulness,
by Thich Nhat Hahn
