Silence is like the eye of the storm which is absolutely calm in spite of the powerful whirlwind of energy around it.

Saying ‘I am in pain’ is very different from saying ‘The body is in pain’.

The roles depend on you for existence, but you can exist independent of the roles.

Roles are not absolute, and neither are they forever. We pick a role up, and we can also let them go, if we know how to do that.

People may change, but their innate being does not change.

After every practice, you walk out a new person.

Curiosity is like a mirror that gets cleaned of its dust and tarnish with every practice, reflecting your being more and more accurately.

In mindfulness we need to focus more on what is working for us in the practices than what is not.

We are more often mere passersby of our own lives rather than people who are truly living.

You can pay attention to almost anything in your life. All you need is an intentional mind wanting to pay attention to any experience or activity.

Just as there is no one solution that can solve all of the world’s problems, there is no one path for everyone to take.

The role of mindfulness is to help us be aware of what gives us meaning.

Living in meditation is the spontaneous ability to live life mindfully.

Mindfulness practices help us to disassociate ourselves from our thoughts. We learn to objectify them and stop seeing them as part of our identity.

All that we do in mindfulness practices is to witness and notice all our sensations and experiences.

In mindfulness we focus on what is right with you rather than what is wrong.

Mindfulness is about integrating a meditative approach with your way of life.

Each mindfulness practice is a date with yourself.

Mindfulness practices are about creating the conducive conditions such that mindfulness happens.

Mindfulness is your being, and it is always available to one who is available to it.

Mindfulness is not something that you should race for or struggle for. Or it will end up being another rat race.

Mindfulness helps us to recognise the value of the present moment, which we often miss while going about living our lives.

One of the key premises on which mindfulness based leadership is built is that leadership is a role, not you.

Mindfulness as a trait refers to the effortless mastery of being anchored in a state of awareness constantly.

Mindfulness is both a practice and a trait.

The only thing you are certain of is that you are awareness and that you are aware of all that is happening to your body sense mind complex.

Being mindful is not being bereft of thoughts and also not expecting the mind to be full of thoughts. Both of these wear us down.

If you do see yourself as awareness, being and peaceful, wherever you go, you will be just that.

There is no place you can be without yourself in it.

The recognition of awareness is in spite of your beliefs, not at the expense of it.

In this mindful awareness, you are just plain being, without any identity. In this being, thoughts, ideas and perception of your body rise and fall.

This wholeness of awareness is what gives all the roles their meaning.

The search for meaning can in fact rob us of its meaning. Searching takes you away from being in the present moment.

Thoughts arise in me, but I am not the thoughts.

The mind that does not wander does not need meditation. The nature of the mind is to wander.

Emotions are like guests entering your doorway. No guest stays forever.

Instead of rejecting the unpleasant emotions in your mind, witness them like they were never yours.

The wonder that you are can only be seen in the present. The universe opens itself in front of you just because you are there to witness it.

Silence is like the rest given to a motor or an engine after a long day of ceaseless activity.

Liking what you do is a bonus but not a necessity in mindfulness based leadership.

One of the deepest insights that mindfulness practices lead to is the discovery of awareness being whole.

Gratitude is not just about saying thanks and showing appreciation. It is a way of seeing the world through the lens of our mind.

Liking what you do is a bonus but not a necessity in mindfulness - based leadership.
