All you who would protect your minds,
Maintain your mindfulness and introspection;
Guard them both, at cost of life and limb,
I join my hands, beseeching you.

When we sit and distraction, discomfort, afflictive motion or dis-ease arise we do not try to alter that but just recognise it as the first noble truth, dukha.
When these things depart we recognise it as the third noble truth cessation.
This is in part mindfulness of the four noble truths

It was an honor to welcome the Venerable Monks of the Dhammacetiya to Alexandria as they continued on their 2,300-mile Walk for Peace journey.
Their message of peace, compassion, & community deeply resonates given our country's current turbulent times.

When you look at the ten virtuous actions they are simply the absence of the non-virtuous actions:
Killing
Stealing
Sexual misconduct
Lying
Divisive speech
Harsh speech
Idle chatter
Covetousness
Ill-will
Wrong view
The absence of these brings peace and contentment to our mind.
Notice that.

The more I reflect on it the more it seems to me that peace, contentment and genuinely pleasant feeling arises from absence, and the importance of equating the absence with the pleasantness of meditation.
