Mindfulness Meditation Is The Embrace Of Any

Any Really Good Scientist Is As Much An Artist As A Scientist. All The Interesting Stuff Is Found On The Edge Between Knowing And Not Knowing. I Know That Sounds Like A Meditation Teacher Speaking, But When You're In The Laboratory, Or You're Theorizing About Physics, You Need To Know What You Know, But If You Can't Get Out From Under That, You Won't Be Able To Make That Insightful, First-time Connection That Nobody Else Has Seen Before.

Mindfulness Means Being Awake. It Means Knowing What You Are Doing.

Meditation Is Like Farming... The Right Soil Is Required To Grow Anything, Nothing Will Grow If The Soil Is Polluted By Striving Or Pushing Too Hard.

It Is Remarkable How Liberating It Feels To Be Able To See That Your Thoughts Are Just Thoughts And That They Are Not 'you' Or 'reality.' For Instance, If You Have The Thought That You Have To Get A Certain Number Of Things Done Today And You Don't Recognize It As A Thought But Act As If It's The 'the Truth,' Then You Have Created A Reality In That Moment In Which You Really Believe That Those Things Must All Be Done Today.

Mindfulness Is About Love And Loving Life. When You Cultivate This Love, It Gives You Clarity And Compassion For Life, And Your Actions Happen In Accordance With That. All Ethics And Morality, And A Sense Of Interconnectedness, Come Out Of The Act Of Paying Attention.
