The Sutra on Full Awareness of Breathing


“I am breathing in and liberating my mind. I am breathing out and liberating my mind.” One practices like this.

-The Sutra on Full Awareness of Breathing, translated by Thich Nhat Hanh

From "Teachings of the Buddha," edited by Jack Kornfield, 1993. Reprinted by arrangement with Shambhala Publications, Boston, http://www.shambhala.com/.

James's comment: With every mindful breath we maintain peace and liberation. I like to even breath mindfully while I'm driving. I use to have A LOT of road rage but since embracing Buddhism and mindful breathing I have REALLY relaxed.

-Peace to all beings-
