Mind Soap: What Is Mindfulness Practice?

Here's an old Zen saying that I find helpful as a way of understanding mindfulness practice. It is just like soap. We clean the mind like we clean the body. And we don't reach a point of being permanently clean. We get dirty. And then we clean again. Every day.

That was so accurate and really helped they way I see things now.. thanks so much!

Editing to add that I keep coming back to this one almost every day because it is so accurate and reminds me of the simplicity of things.

Wonderful

A lovely reminder to keep coming back

Good (and helpful) perspective on our meditative practices. Short and sweet. Thanks Charles.

Very gentle reminder that you cleanse your mind each day. I felt comforted by this message.
