Truth for the Family: The Power of Mindfulness and Meditation : หน้า 164/216

Part Five: Truth for the Family through mindfulness. Mindfulness is being aware of what we are doing at the present moment, and being able to differentiate, or make a judgment, about what is right or wrong, good or bad, appropriate or inappropriate. Mindfulness protects us from recklessness. The best way to practice mindfulness is through meditation. REMEMBER: Meditation is the method to eliminate a wrong view. By training our mind to come to a standstill until it becomes clear, pure, and radiant, meditation enables us to be firm in righteousness and the right view. Meditation may be the single most important "action" that we can practice and teach our children. When we meditate, we learn non-recklessness which means that we learn how to possess the carefulness that leads to morality. When we are reckless, chances for misconduct through physical, verbal, and mental means will be high. If we are careful, we can train ourselves to be mindful all of the time. In training ourselves to be mindful, we are constantly immersed in boonya, the self-generating, pure, perfect energy! After learning this through experience, we will all agree that immersing ourselves throughout our life in boonya is the happiest and most reliable state that we can depend upon.
