Mind

A meditation:
Death may keep me from changing my mind.
Learning means changing my mind.
Changing my mind means learning.
My learning is changing my mind.
My mind is changing my learning.
Learning changes mind.

As I live, so I learn.
Live and learn!
Learn and live?
I learn as I live.
I live as I learn.
There are way to live.
There are ways to learn.
This isn't the whole story.
Sit with it a bit.

The Blooming of a Lotus by Tich Nhat Hanh

I've been slowly letting go of my books so that even though I continue to add to my library, its size is beginning to diminish. One of those books I continue to learn from is "The Blooming of a Lotus."

This is a book of simple word meditations written out in strait-forward, every-day English. It is so laid out as to make it easy and pleasant to practice these healthy, doable, practical meditations with a smile.

These meditations help me to look into myself and around myself in a more tolerant, happy, and realistic way. They help me to more fully see what is really here. They help me to greater acceptance of, and gratitude for, what is. They also, in gentle, pleasant ways effectively help me to a clearer awareness of peace and joy and on to higher levels of real health and abundance.

Its a nice little book of powerful potential.
I'm glad I opened it.
