When we start to align with refuge, when we commit ourselves to non-harming, that is a great blessing. Even greater and more fruitful is even for a few seconds to allow the mind to be kind, to open up and let our well-being include what’s around us. But one of the deepest blessings is holding in the mind the perception of change.
