Cultivating the Wisdom of Presence | Insight Meditation
Deb PhelpsSeptember 30 2023 • Duration: 23 Minutes
Here's a quote from Joseph Goldstein, a renowned Vipassana meditation teacher and one of the co-founders of the Insight Meditation Society:
"Every moment in which we are aware of the present is a moment in which we have stepped out of time and our usual conditioned patterns. It's a moment of real freedom, in which the capacity to choose our response to life is fully available. As we practice mindfulness, these moments become more frequent and familiar, becoming touchstones of a deeper inner wisdom. As we learn to reflect on our experiences, rather than simply react to life, our heart stores these as teachings. Over time, this storehouse of wisdom grows, guiding us with increasing clarity and compassion."
This quote embodies the idea of using mindfulness to gather life's teachings and grow our inner reservoir of wisdom.
