In the moment of pure noting, there is no self - only the knowing and the known.

Mindfulness helps us get better at seeing the difference between what's happening and the stories we tell ourselves about what's happening.

One moment can change a day, one day can change a life, and one life can change the world.

When you note pain, you are not trying to make it go away. You are trying to understand its true nature.

Mindfulness is the quality and power of mind that is aware of what's happening—without judgment and without interference.

Each moment of mindfulness is a moment of purification.

Mindfulness is attention to life, and life itself is sacred.

The perfect moment is this one, not the one you're waiting for.

People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth.

The practice of mindfulness begins in the small, remote cave of your unconscious mind and blossoms with the sunlight of your conscious life.

Try to be mindful and let things take their natural course. Then your mind will become still in any surroundings, like a clear forest pool.

Every experience is an opportunity to practice awareness.

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.

The practice of mindfulness transforms the mind from a place of suffering into an instrument of enlightenment.

Fear keeps us focused on the past or worried about the future. If we can acknowledge our fear, we can realize that right now we are okay.

There are only two days in the year that nothing can be done. One is called yesterday and the other is called tomorrow, so today is the right day to love, believe, do and mostly live.

The more precisely you note, the more clearly you understand. The more clearly you understand, the stronger your insight becomes.

Self-awareness is the key to freedom. The more we understand ourselves, the more we understand how to be free.

The miracle is not to walk on water. The miracle is to walk on the green earth, dwelling deeply in the present moment and feeling truly alive.

The future is completely open, and we are writing it moment to moment.

Ardently do today what must be done. Who knows? Tomorrow, death comes.

The color of the mountains is Buddha's body; the sound of running water is his great speech.

When mindfulness becomes continuous, the distinction between the observer and the observed begins to break down.

Mindfulness helps you go home to the present. And every time you go there and recognize a condition of happiness that you have, happiness comes.

Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky. Conscious breathing is my anchor.

Mindfulness is the key to transformation. It enables us to see our experience as it really is, free from distortion and bias.

We can learn to be present with whatever is happening in our lives, and in this way, we can begin to transform our relationship to difficulty.

In the spiritual world there are no time divisions such as the past, present and future; for they have contracted themselves into a single moment of the present where life quivers in its true sense.

The only way to experience truth is to look within, to observe oneself.

Mindfulness is being aware of what's going on, not trying to control what's going on.

The mind can go in a thousand directions, but on this beautiful path, I walk in peace. With each step, the wind blows. With each step, a flower blooms.

The awareness that you are here, right now, is the ultimate fact.

The key to transformation is not to fight with our experience but to open to it with awareness.

The true purpose of Zen is to see things as they are, to observe things as they are, and to let everything go as it goes.

The practice of mindfulness is simply to bring awareness to what we are doing, what we are saying, and what we are thinking.

Each breath is a new beginning, a fresh opportunity to awaken.

When you note effectively, there is no time for defilements to arise. The mind becomes pure through noting.

Mindfulness is being aware of what is happening right now, without wishing it were different.

Walk as if you are kissing the Earth with your feet.

When we look directly at our thoughts, they dissolve like bubbles in water.

The quality of every moment depends on the state of our minds.

The past is just a memory. The future is just a dream. Be here now.

Waking up this morning, I smile. Twenty-four brand new hours are before me. I vow to live fully in each moment.

Moment after moment, completely devote yourself to listening to your inner voice.

Meditation is not about trying to change ourselves. Meditation is about being aware of what is.

Every moment is a fresh beginning. Every breath is a new chance.

Awareness is like the sun. When it shines on things, they are transformed.

Treat every moment as your last. It is not preparation for something else.

The present moment is the only moment available to us, and it is the door to all moments.

The five aggregates are not a theoretical model but a description of lived experience to be investigated through mindfulness.

Mindfulness isn't difficult, we just need to remember to do it.

Observe the reality as it is, not as you wish it to be.

Breathing in, I calm body and mind. Breathing out, I smile.

The most precious gift we can offer others is our presence. When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers.

The technique of self-observation is the technique of observing the reality about oneself at the experiential level.

Each moment of clear seeing is a moment of freedom from the illusion of permanence, satisfaction, and self.

Concentration is a cornerstone of mindfulness practice. Your mindfulness will only be as robust as your capacity to ground your attention in the present moment.

The past is for learning from, not for living in.

Smile, breathe, and go slowly.

The whole path of mindfulness is about letting go. We let go of our attachment to our views, our attachment to our opinions, our attachment to our ideas.
