Israeli Retreat No1 Q and a (2)
This talk details how the past influences the present, and emphasizes mindfulness and compassion in addressing suffering and making choices. Healing comes from being present and reflecting on past harm. Fear and worry about the future waste energy; caring for the present shapes a better future. Trust grows through mindful practices like walking meditation. Suffering is intrinsic and not solely tied to decisions. Compassion and mindfulness help navigate grief and societal issues. The five mindfulness trainings guide mindful consumption and self-defense against harmful influences. Compassion connects us and fosters clarity, minimizing harm and nurturing happiness. Non-violence is an ideal direction, aiming to minimize harm even in challenging contexts.
