Intelligence flows within and all around us in every moment. Are we taking enough time and care to receive the learning that wants to come in? By setting our inner foundation with concentration practices and ongoing observation, we can become healthy soil for seeds of true knowledge to sprout. Through our own experience of paying close attention to ourselves and watching what takes place, we touch inner knowing directly. Knowledge gleamed from our own investigation brings about further inner transformation.

“Guess what? When it comes right down to it, wherever you go, there you are. Whatever you wind up doing, that’s what you’ve wound up doing. Whatever you are thinking right now, that’s what’s on your mind. Whatever has happened to you, it has already happened. The important question is, how are you going to handle it? In other words, “Now what?”
— Jon Kabat-Zinn
