Meditation – Suppose Your Passive Form to be an Empty Room with Walls of Skin – Empty

SUPPOSE YOUR PASSIVE FORM TO BE AN EMPTY ROOM WITH WALLS OFSKIN… but inside, everything empty. This is one of the most beautiful techniques.

The Art of Communicating by Thich Nhat Hanh (Summary)

Note: Thanks Priyanka Athma Shakti Scarlet for the recommendation. :)When we say something that nourishes us and uplifts the people around us, we are feeding love and compassion.

Meditation – Remaining Centered When a Mood Against or For Someone Arises

Meditation – Remaining Centered When a Mood Against or For Someone Arises
