Buddhist Women on a Path of Spiritual Awakening
How do we abide in peace? Let us develop awareness. We listen and try to be peaceful with all that arises in consciousness. Meditate, be present, attentive, and aware – here and now. Understand more deeply how the mind works. Can we soften our difficult memories or thoughts through the medicine of the Dhamma? Use this skill to get a footing in the present moment rather than agitating during rough times. What we’re really fighting is change and the feeling that we have no control. One way, one day, everything dies. Yes, we may be choiceless – but we have the ability to know change and to abide in awareness of the present moment. How can we sustain that? We practice using the currency of kindness – our true home.
