Mahasati Meditation - Self-awareness in Daily Life

Self-awareness in Daily Life

To cultivate self-awareness, practitioners must practice as much as possible. Practitioners can practice even when in a car or on a bus. While sitting on a bus or in a car, practitioners lay their hand on the thigh and turn the palm up and down, or they run the thumb over the fingertip, or they make a fist and open it repeatedly. The key is to do every movement slowly and be aware. According to Mahasati Meditation, this is the natural way of cultivating self-awareness, learning Dhamma with nature.

Famous quotes containing the words daily and/or life:

    Neither evil tongues,
    Rash judgements, nor the sneers of selfish men,
    Nor greetings where no kindness is, nor all
    The dreary intercourse of daily life,
    Shall e’er prevail against us.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    If anything characterizes the cultural life of the seventies in America, it is an insistence on preventing failures of communication.
    Richard Dean Rosen (b. 1949)
