Daily Affirmations: Optimism

Today, I will practice optimism on every level. There is no room for negative thought or negative actions in my life today, or any day.  When a negative thought enters my mind I will seek to release it to the universe with a deep breath and an exhale.  ~ Pamela J. Leavey

Daily Affirmations: Two Paths

There are two paths to follow, the inner path that leads to the self, and the outer path that encompasses the universe that surrounds each and every one of us. Each path holds it’s own importance I believe, and I re-mind myself each day to remain open and balanced on the paths I follow.

Dalai Lama Shares His Views on Happiness and Compassion in Talk on ‘Beyond Religion’

On Sunday, I drove into Boston to hear His Holiness the Dalai Lama speak on the subject of his latest book, Beyond Religion. A performance by Massachusetts’ own James Taylor national treasure, opened the event. The event was well attended with an estimated sold out crowd of 2500.

With everyone in the ballroom standing, as His Holiness stepped onto the stage, the Dalai Lama took his seat on the stage and signaled to the crowd to sit.

“Very strong light,” he said as he put on his customary visor cap that he wears often when speaking on a well lighted stage. He then walked over to Friar Thomas Keating and Brother David Steindl-Rast, the two Catholic priests also on the discussion panel and pulled their Monks’ hoods up to shield their eyes from the strong light as well. His Holiness is well known for his sense of humor which is often directed towards himself, and one finds him chuckling with glee when he steps into the mode of the holy trickster.
