Dave will share about loving this moment:

I’ve tinkered with the words to the song that I wrote by that name. I’ve added a new verse. Frequently, this is part of my daily practice. The song contains much of what I have learned over the past years.

Love This Moment - ¾ time

C                             Dm7

Love this moment, love this moment

Em                             Am   G

Every heartbeat and every breath

C                              Dm7

Love this moment, love this moment

            Em                G             Dm7     G       C

Come home to your body and let your mind rest

C                       Dm7

In this moment, in this moment

Em                             Am       G

Every moment that ever has been

C                         Dm7

In this moment, in this moment

Em     G                  Dm7  G    C

Every moment that ever will be

C                             Dm7

Guard this moment, guard this moment

Em                           Am         G

Here your wisdom, joy, and peace

C                              Dm7

Guard this moment, guard this moment

Em            G               Dm7        G    C

In mindfulness enjoy your true home

C                             Dm7

Life’s a wonder, life’s a wonder

Em                      Am     G

All you see, hear, and taste

C                              Dm7

Taste the wonder, feel the wonder

Em         G       Dm7      G    C

Unfold in each moment awake

Dijana will share on the Five Remembrances and the topic of habit energies.


Thay’s version of the Five Remembrances:

I am of the nature to grow old.  There is no way to escape growing old.

I am of the nature to have ill health.  There is no way to escape ill health.

I am of the nature to die.  There is no way to escape death.

All that is dear to me and everyone I love are of the nature to change.  There is no way to escape being separated from them.

My actions are my only true belongings.  I cannot escape the consequences of my actions.  My actions are the ground upon which I stand

Dijana’s version of the Five Remembrances:

I am of the nature to change
               There is no way to escape growing
I am of the nature to heal
               There is no way to escape wisdom
I am of the nature to transform
               There is no way to escape metamorphosis
All that is dear to me and everyone I love are of the nature to change
               There is no way to escape receiving new gifts
My actions flow from my consciousness
               I can always change the course of my actions
               My actions are my self


be well, be here, be now

Here is an excerpt from Understanding Our Mind by Thay on habit energies
