More About Mindfulness in Action: Making Friends with Yourself through Meditation and Everyday Awareness
The purpose of the practice of meditation is to experience the gaps. We do nothing, essentially, and see what that bringseither discomfort or relief, whatever the case may be. The starting point for the practice of meditation is the mindfulness discipline of developing peace. The peace we experience in meditation is simply this state of doing nothing, which is experiencing the absence of speed. Chogyam Trungpa, Mindfulness in Action: Making Friends with Yourself through Meditation and Everyday Awareness // Everything in life is literal, direct, and personaland very demanding. But that demand seems to be necessary. Your commitment is to be present. Youre going to experience life as it is, rather than your expectations from the past or your desires for the future. Youre going to relate with life in the fullest sense. Chogyam Trungpa, Mindfulness in Action: Making Friends with Yourself through Meditation and Everyday Awareness // Many people have discovered that mindfulness offers them a down-to-earth yet immediate way to connect with themselves. It is simple acceptance, described here as making friends with yourself. It is, as well, a means to unlock creativity and compassion.

Ornithologists have David Sibley; Buddhist practitioners have Chogyam Trumpa -- pack this handy field guide to the exploration of the self in your carry-on suitcase. And blessings for good travels.

Then again, it probably gave me the best it could offer after how much I considered its words.
