Sitting quietly, doing nothing.

In our Dhamma practice and tradition, we simply sit quietly opening our heart so that the old story we carry, the old habit of grasping at who and what we are, can be seen, accepted and finally released harmlessly into the universe. Now we are no longer a victim to those old voices and conditioning and so, whatever we meet in the mind, whatever thought, mood, feeling, emotion, whatever idea, mental projection into the future or memory of past deeds, is absolutely perfect in this moment.

We don't have to get rid of anything, or create something different, something spiritual, to experience.

In this place, life is just life in the most beautiful way. The complaining mind falls quiet and things are seen to be only what they are, not good or bad, right or wrong, but events happening in time and space. We can interact or not. We can choose our response to each moment knowing that whatever we do will resonate with the pure hearted beings or not.

Do not think that you are not seen by the pure in heart. You are known by the thoughts you empower, love or fear, compassion or greed, generosity or selfishness.

The moment we free ourselves from the narrow limitations of the mind that is always chasing the next moment of happiness, we are free, and in that freedom, we will see that whatever this old voice says, everything is perfect.

May all beings live in peace.

May all beings be happy.
