The mind of a Buddha is at peace because of the absence of reactivity. Can we discover that place of rest in our own minds? Mindfulness of vedana, the feeling tone of experience, exposes the ways we try to control our experiences from our likes and dislikes. What does it mean to open to the way things are?
Through mindfulness of breathing we can develop a deeply unified mind, heart and body. The beauty of the breath takes us into meditative absorptions, heals the mind and body, and opens insight and full liberation beyond the patterns of suffering.
