Where is peace if not within us? The world may be on fire but we start where we are, guided by the Buddha himself. Just being with the breath, studying the law of impermanence, see how it is ever changing – arising and ceasing. No breath is ever the same. No footstep, no moment, no day repeats. This practice of present moment awareness reveals that we are not our thoughts, nor the objects in the mind; we are not our mind states nor anything that the mind clings to in the world – just as a mirror is not what it sees. For we are the knowing that reflects all that is known – pure consciousness itself, boundless and peaceful. That is our true nature.
