Meditation as Nourishment Meditation can bring you happiness right away. You stop letting your worries, your anxieties, your projects carry you away. You come back to the present moment, you touch what is still positive in you, and you have the joy of meditation, the joy of the practice according to the teaching of the Buddha. The joy of meditation is like your food, your daily food. If you don’t have that daily food, that joy, you’re like a withered flower. When you get back in touch with the awareness that there are plenty of positive conditions still present, your mind becomes very joyful and you smile to yourself; you look fresh and alive. So don’t deprive yourself of that food, the joy of meditation

Why is Compassion
of foremost importance
in the Buddha’s Teachings?
Because it is the root of all the vastness
and profundity of the Bodhisattva Path.
Compassion is the Awakened Heart itself.

-Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche

To awaken means
to awaken out of
the self- talk in the head,
because the self- talk
is a form of hypnosis

The power of Now

If we can relax when our strong emotions come, then we don’t pass fear on to our children and to future generations. If we stay with our fear, suppressing it and then letting it explode, we are sharing that fear with the young people around us, and they will consume it and pass it on.
