If your eyes are blinded with your worries, you cannot see the beauty of the sunset.

La Mo 'Praying'

I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope,
for hope would be hope for the wrong thing.
And wait without love,
for love would be love of the wrong thing.
Yet there is faith.
But the faith and the hope and the love, are all in the waiting.
And the darkness shall be the light
and the stillness the dancing.

　~ T.S. Elliot

'meditation is not to control your thoughts... but to ensure that your thoughts do not control you.'

     

i don't know who first said this but it seems worth repeating..

"I add my breath to your breath
that our days may be long on the Earth,
that the days of our people may be long,
that we shall be as one person,
that we may finish our road together.”

— Prayer from the Laguna Pueblo people.

Sometime go outside and sit,
In the evening at sunset,
When there’s a slight breeze that touches your body,
And makes the leaves and the trees move gently.
You’re not trying to do anything, really.
You’re simply allowing yourself to be,
Very open from deep within,
Without holding onto anything whatsoever.
Don’t bring something back from the past, from a memory.
Don’t plan that something should happen.
Don’t hold onto anything in the present.
Nothing you perceive needs to be nailed down.
Simply let experience take place, very freely,
So that your empty, open heart
Is suffused with the tenderness of true compassion.

  ~ Tsoknyi Rinpoche

"Life on earth is a whole, yet it expresses itself in unique time-bound bodies, microscopic or visible, plant or animal, extinct or living. So there can be no one place to be. There can be no one way to be, no one way to practice, no one way to learn, no one way to love, no one way to grow or to heal, no one way to live, no one way to feel, no one thing to know or be known. The particulars count."

~ Jon Kabat-Zinn, ‘Wherever You Go, There You Are: Mindfulness Meditation in Everyday Life’
