The Buddha’s teachings are often discovered not in books but in the quiet observation of our own minds. This short Buddhist meditation poem reflects my daily meditation practice and the realisation that wisdom grows through experience, mindfulness and ordinary living.
“Each morning I sit,
From “Stillness” by Dr B
watching thoughts become my teachers—
the Buddha smiles still,
not from books upon the shelf,
but from this ordinary day.”
