Daily Mindfulness 12/4/12 – Shining

Practicing mindfulness, we recognize our own limitations.  We know we have the Buddha-seed within us, but may need help harvesting it.  Seeing this limitation, we look to others to shine their light upon us.  No matter how much experience and intelligence we think we have, there is always more to be learned.  Practicing mindfulness, we must pocket our pride and ego, and allow ourselves to learn from others.  We practice right listening and right mindfulness, and take in the light around us.
