  • Every moment of movement is a chance to become more aware of yourself and the world around you, says Zen Buddhist nun Sister True Dedication. Guiding us through the art of "mindful walking," she shares three essential questions to ask yourself to awaken your strength, build resilience and discover your inner peace.

    Thank you Sister True Dedication. That is one of the most beautiful and peaceful speech I’ve listened to. It touches me deeply especially in the wake of the war in Ukraine where thousands of people are being killed and the whole beautiful country is being destroyed. Ultimately, humans are facing an unpredictable calamity, and we are causing this to ourselves.
    I hope your speeches will reach world’s politicians somehow. The ending part where you suggested if we don’t make a change our civilization will end, should make the headline for awakening.
    If the world politicians have half a day to practice mindfulness and listen to your speech, they might re-think about their moves during war time and save the world.

    "In taking care of each other, we affirm our human nature, our collective strength and wholeness, our societal and ecological stewardship, our future. This is our soul.. our sole raison d'etre." ~ Paul Jung
    "We travel together, passengers on a little space ship, dependent on its vulnerable reserves of air and soil; all committed for our safety to its security and peace; preserved from annihilation only by the care, the work, and, I will say, the love we give our fragile craft. We cannot maintain it half fortunate, half miserable, half confident, half despairing, half slave-to the ancient enemies of man-half free in a liberation of resources undreamed of until this day. No craft, no crew can travel safely with such vast contradictions. On their resolution depends the survival of us all." ~ Adlai Stevenson
    "I carry meaning. I care for family. I care for society. I care for environment, all life. I care for their future. I cannot just live for I. I came to be, because of what came before. And thus, I am now, for what will be -- meaningfully." ~ Paul Jung
    "Somewhere along the way, there develops within the soul a yearning that can no longer be ignored, a craving for the great love affair. We feel it drawing ever closer. It is the greatest of them all. It cannot fail. It is all consuming. It is incomparable. It is the love affair with our own true nature and the source from which it comes. The desire is in all of us but, more often than not, it is ignored for other interests. We wrestle with each interest, trying to make it work, growing with each adventure until the light has grown bright enough for us to reach for it." ~ Donna Goddard
    "... the salvation of this human world lies nowhere else than in the human heart, in the human power to reflect, in human modesty, and in human responsibility. Without a global revolution in the sphere of human consciousness, nothing will change for the better." ~ Vaclav Havel
    "You have to dream in a wholesome way, not just dream about yourself, but dream about what's best for all." ~ Audrey Hepburn

      @Nathalie Larzo... if only this were true in all cases.
      Unfortunately, it's simply a 'hit or miss', 50% chance that what you've noted will apply.
      The people who 'did all the right things' and STILL failed aren't here to refute what you're saying because... they didn't make it. They're either dead, or literally on the dark precipice, awaiting it.
      I'm nearly there, but I happen to have enough marbles left in my brain to bother posting about it. Not that anyone will listen. 🙄 Invisibility is the gift and curse of 'those who did all the right things and still failed'.
      It's all mostly LUCK. 90% or more of it, at least. And my 10% has *not* been enough because the universe just... didn't agree. 😊

      Ted Turner was rich from the moment he was born. He had EVERY opportunity (by luck) which granted him avenues toward success.
      Sure, he had to do his 10%, but the UNIVERSE did the other 90%, lol.
      Don't think for even a single minute that ANYONE who is successful, famous, influential, etc. became so due to *anything* other than (mostly) luck.
      All the HONEST, humble superstars of the world acknowledge this (usually buried in obscure interviews). Arnold Schwarzenegger... Jennifer Aniston... Richard Branson... Cate Blanchette... Denzel W... Warren Buffett... you name them: they have stories where they got LUCKY, and everything changed.
      Yes, they had to work hard, but it's not as if 98% of the population doesn't ALSO bust their butts.
      Difference is... that they get nowhere. 😕

      I think we need to define what it means to quit. It IS okay to change course if the course is stewed in toxicity or you feel devalued (say, a job where you are not appreciated or even bullied etc.) I think winning is winning over your emotions and accepting them and responding to them in such a way that you can be a responsible, fully healed adult. You might leave avenues that are not truly good for you then. :)

    "Elementally beautiful. Elementally, worth preserving. Protect what matters most: Mother Earth, and all the beauty and life she has born. Mother Earth, the elemental basis of all our lives, and all our loves." ~ Paul Jung
    "Nature is a part of our humanity, and without some awareness and experience of that divine mystery man ceases to be man. When the Pleiades and the wind in the grass are no longer a part of the human spirit, a part of very flesh and bone, man becomes, as it were, a kind of cosmic outlaw, having neither the completeness and integrity of the animal nor the birthright of a true humanity." ~ Henry Beston
    "Our identity includes our natural world, how we move through it, how we interact with it and how it sustains us." "There is no environment "out there" that is separate from us. We can't manage our impact on the environment if we are our surroundings. Indigenous people are absolutely correct: we are born of the earth and constructed from the four sacred elements of earth, air, fire and water. (Hindus list these four and add a fifth element, space.)" ~ David Suzuki
    "I was driven to understand my past. For we are not ready-made out of somebody’s rib. We are composites of many different legacies, put together from leftovers in an evolutionary process that has been going on for billions of years. Even the endorphins that made my labor pains tolerable came from molecules that humans still share with earthworms." ~ Sarah B. Hrdy
    "The Buddha (and you) is only made of non Buddha elements." ~ Thich Nhat Hanh
    “Only if we understand, can we care. Only if we care, we will help. Only if we help, we shall be saved." ~ Jane Goodall
    “It is probable that the next Buddha will not take the form of an individual. The next Buddha may take the form of a community, a community practicing understanding and loving kindness, a community practicing mindful living. This may be the most important thing we can do for the survival of the earth.” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh
    "Coronavirus, climate change, consumption, corruption, complacency ... Times are difficult, but not dire - if we become different, this time, for good - for generations, to admire." ~ Paul Jung
    "I offer gentle understanding to myself. I position myself in love, not fear. I look behind me with forgiveness. I look forward with festive anticipation. I embrace this holy moment and assert, "Now. This moment is the moment to love, the moment to serve, the moment to seize the legacy instead of the small. Now. Now I will live large, love boldly, reach to the edges of my unfurled heart and fully enrolled hope." ~ Mary Anne Radmacher
