When the mind is free from the clouds of distracting conceptions it becomes bright and clear, like a cloudless sky.” ~ Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
In these uncertain times, many of us find it difficult to focus our mind in a positive way. As a result, we feel anxious and ungrounded. Fortunately, we can learn to direct our focus in a beneficial way, experiencing the positive, peaceful mind that arises from meditative concentration. By developing our ability to concentrate on positive minds during meditation, we begin to experience an inner peace that keeps us relaxed and centered after our session.
