When you practice the bell of mindfulness, you breathe in, and you listen deeply to the sound of the bell, and you say, “Listen, Listen.” Then you breathe out and say, “This wonderful sound brings me back to my true home” . . . If you are a Christian, you feel that Jesus Christ is your home. It’s very comfortable to think of Jesus as your home. . . He is ever present. Your practice is how to touch him; he is your home.-- Thich Nhat Hanh, Going Home: Jesus and Buddha as Brothers(Many thanks to Fr. Clyde Glandon for sending me this quote.)
