"Right mindfulness does not simply mean being aware;……" — Chogyam Trungpa
"Right mindfulness does not simply mean being aware; it is like creating a work of art. You can therefore trust what you are doing; you are not threatened by anything. You have room to dance in the space, and this makes it a creative situation. The space is open to you."
