Mindfulness w4.jpg
Q: How do we perceive mindfulness?

Dr. Thynn: Normally, our minds are in constant motion, thinking, feeling, and endlessly flitting from one thing to another. Because of this perpetual motion, there is little room for awareness to arise. Awareness may peek though at times, but it is too timid. It is sluggish and dull. Most of our noisy thoughts and emotions dominate the scene. The mind must get out of this perpetual cycle for awareness to arise fully.

Just as a mother would
protect her only child
even at the risk of her own life,
even so, let one cultivate
a boundless heart
towards all beings.
