When Experience Is Viewed In

The Real Meditative Practice Is To Open Up To The Full Range Of What Happens In Life. And Parenting Is A Fantastic Arena For Doing That Kind Of Spiritual Training. It's As Much A Potential Door Into Enlightenment As Anything Else.

Initiate Giving. Don't Wait For Someone To Ask. See What Happens - Especially To You. You May Find That You Gain A Greater Clarity About Yourself And About Your Relationships, As Well As More Energy Rather Than Less. You May Find That, Rather Than Exhausting Yourself Or Your Resources, You Will Replenish Them. Such Is The Power Of Mindful, Selfless Generosity. At The Deepest Level, There Is No Giver, No Gift, And No Recipient . . . Only The Universe Rearranging Itself.

Meditation Is Really A Non-doing. It Is The Only Human Endeavor I Know Of Being Where You Already Are.

There Is Just This Moment. We Are Not Trying To Improve Or To Get Anywhere Else.

Living In A Chronic State Of Unawareness Can Cause Us To Miss Much Of What Is Most Beautiful And Meaningful In Our Lives.
