Become The Master Gardener Of Your Life
Our inner garden, a metaphor for our consciousness, can be nurtured through Mindfulness. By practicing Mindfulness (Smrti), we can observe and understand the "seeds" that inhabit this garden. This deep observation, aided by Concentration (Samadhi), leads to Insight (Prajna) into the causes and conditions behind these thoughts and emotions. This insight empowers us to transform challenging experiences into opportunities for growth. While this journey of self-cultivation requires patience and determination, the tools of Mindfulness allow us to cultivate an inner garden of joy, love, and wisdom.
