“If
we didn't take our minds so personally, we could learn a lot about
being human. Some of the themes are universal. Some people have a little
more fear, some have a little more anger, some have a little more
peacefulness. But we all have a human mind and there are a lot of
commonalities to having a human mind. The invitation of mindfulness—and
what I would love for you to do—is to get more intimate with your own
mind and take it less personally.”
In this dharma talk,
given as part of IMS's Befriending the World through Mindfulness
retreat, Tempel Smith reflects on the Third Foundation of Mindfulness,
citta or mindfulness of mind.
