My time of silence and meditation is not easy. I keep getting pulled to my regular ways of entertaining, escaping myself. Of not being with myself, such as reading newspaper, watching TV, getting online for facebook, fantasizing, eating junk food. However, being with myself, I am more mindful, more aware, more sensitive, more creative, a better listener, eat healthier food, and especially more BEINGNESS. I am more of a human BEING, and less of a human doing. Ron Alexander
Blessing must arise from within your own mind. It is not something that comes from outside. When the positive qualities of your mind increase and the negativities decrease, that is what blessing means. The Tibetan word for blessing … means transforming into magnificent potential. Therefore, blessing refers to the development of virtuous qualities you did not previously have and the improvement of those good qualities you have already developed. ― Dalai Lama XIV
