🌸 Good morning, everyone! This morning the sun has risen again—steady, generous, asking nothing. And like the sun, peace rises within us each new day, whether or not we remember to look for it. It does not disappear when life grows difficult. It does not abandon us when the hours grow long. It simply waits, quietly and faithfully, for us to turn inward and find it there—warm and whole.

This morning, let’s turn to the peace within with every mindful breath and through mindfulness in our actions throughout the day. Let’s live with it. Let’s begin here.

Today is going to be our peaceful day.
May you and all beings be well, happy, and at peace. 🙏✨

😊When Ajahn Panyākara asked, Ajahn Pravat that “Back when I trained walking with you in India, when I became sick with diarrhea and you left me behind while everyone kept walking…didn’t wait me to walk ”

He replied, “I wanted you to understand that when I first trained with Luang Por Sanong, I also suffered greatly. My whole body was in pain, I had diarrhea 37 times, and it was very lonely and discouraging being by myself with no friends around.

I wanted to pass on that feeling for you to learn from it and overcome it by yourself. But fortunately, when you were sick, there were still doctors and you were taken to the hospital.”

That is why he feels proud of Ajahn Panyākara’s achievement — being able to successfully accomplish it in America.
(But that’s not the entire conversation. What I shared was just a summary based on my own understanding as well. 😄)

Power of silence.
