"When we learn to calm our minds in order to look deeply at the true nature of things, we can arrive at full understanding which dissolves every sorrow and anxiety and gives rise to acceptance and love … which in turn give rise to correct action … This is the secret treasure of mindfulness-it leads to the realization of liberation and enlightenment." |
