Hi, and welcome to your Daily Mindfulness.
So today let's explore the question,
what does spiritual maturity look like?
And is there a criteria by which we
could measure some kind of degree
of success in our own practice?
So, although progress on the path of
waking up unfolds differently for every
one of us, and there's not a straight
path, you know, there's times that are
more challenging and rocky and there's
times that are much more easeful.
But over time, there are two particular
qualities that emerges what we could
call fruits of sustained practice.
These are the signatures of
somebody who's able to really
hold more presence in their life.
And these of course are also two
criteria by which you can get some rough
measure of success in your own practice.
Now it's not to do with how long
you could meditate or what kinds of
special experiences you might've had.
But rather you can measure some
form of success in this practice,
by the degree of peace that you feel
within and the degree of wisdom and
kindness expressed in your actions.
So as the sixth Zen patriarch
said, "Do not tell me that kindness
and awareness are separate.
Awareness is the foundation
of kindness and kindness is
the expression of awareness."
So each time we practice mindfulness, we
tap into what Ram Dass calls, the loving
awareness at the heart of who we are.
And we tap into the
qualities that come with it.
Wisdom, compassion,
kindness, peace, and joy.
And with repeated practice, those
qualities become a way of being.
And then of course they affect
everyone we know, and everyone we meet.
So knowing that, I'd like to thank you for
your practice and invite you to join me
for today's meditation in the spirit of
u, cultivating more inner peace, kindness,
and wisdom, both within us and without.

The little talks before the meditations are priceless. It's like I've found my peeps. The topics, the quotes, the goals—it all makes so much sense to me, things I want to be thinking and learning about. Most importantly, the meditations are kindness-centered, which I love. It feels like a new way to approach meditation.

Better than Headspace. I've had the paid version of both apps, and I must say I enjoy this one better.

I am very new to meditation, and am so happy that my first introduction to it has been through this app
The first session was fantastic. I feel safe. And supported. Almost like having someone helping me through my difficult time. I’m very grateful for this app.
