We need only invoke the power of mindful awareness in any action of body, speech or mind to elevate that action from the unconscious reflex of a trained creature to the awakened choice of a human being who is guided to a higher life by wisdom. Andrew Olendzki
- Open to the vast consciousness within which the ordinary mind arises.
- Open to insight, change, spaciousness, and surprising understandings of the way the mind and the world work.
- Train the ordinary or functional mind to respond skillfully and appropriately to a widening range of life circumstances.
- Leave behind a reactive problem-solving stance.
- Begin co-creating a beautiful life in harmony with all living things.
