“This is the attitude of bodhisattvas: to practice meditation not only for yourself, but for the world, to relieve the suffering. And, when others suffer less, you suffer less. When you suffer less, they suffer less. That is interbeing. There is no separation between yourself and others. You do not live just for yourself; you live for other people. Your peace, freedom, and joy also profit others; you are already helpful. And so, when you breathe mindfully or walk mindfully and create joy and peace, that is already a gift for the world.” JoySufferingMindfulnessServing HumanitySpiritual PracticeHelpfulnessBodhisattvas Book:Zen and the Art of Saving the Planet Source: Zen and the Art of Saving the Planet
