1. Mindfulness is the result of bare attention on one thing. It's kinda a like putting a stake in the ground in order to see where to put the house in the context of the landscape.
2. Mindfulness is love. Hm. My teacher Michael Stone suggested that recently. If you think about it, when you love something or someone, all of your attention is right there, and as a result, your awareness of the world opens.
3. Happiness is at the intersection of Love and Joy.
4. Happiness is at the intersection of Joy and Mindfulness.
