«In
Plum Village, the practice center where I live in southwest France, we don’t
talk when we walk. This helps us fully enjoy walking one hundred percent. If
you talk a lot, then it’s difficult for you to experience your steps deeply,
and you won’t enjoy them very much. The same is true when you drink a cup of
tea: if you’re concentrated and you focus your attention on the cup of tea,
then the cup of tea becomes a great joy. Mindfulness and concentration bring
about pleasure and insight.»
