Thanks for coming for our DAYWA Discussions session yesterday :)
We spent the morning looking at something ordinary, but prevalent: comparison.

We compare all the time. Someone gets promoted, seems more accomplished or more liked, and the mind can start making it about who we are.

One takeaway from the contemporary research was that comparison is human. The question is what happens when it lands.

AN 8.6 gave us another way to look at this. Life brings changes in fortune, recognition and status to everyone. What differs is whether these conditions come to take over the mind.

SN 45.162 pushes this further: the mind can measure itself against others and decide it is ahead, behind, or about the same. Somewhere along the way, โ€œthey have something I donโ€™tโ€ can subtly become โ€œthere is something wrong with me.โ€

Comparison may arise. We donโ€™t always have to be consumed by it.

Join us for our weekly DAYWA Sits session on Wednesday!

Good AM folkss! Last weekend, 40 of us came to Dharma Drum Mountain Singapore for DAYWAโ€™s first Mindful Coffee Session! โ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿ™

We tasted more than 10 pourover coffees (mindfully, I hope ๐Ÿ˜†), while taking a little time to practise being present with something as simple as a cup of coffee.

May we continue to bring that same awareness into the ordinary moments of our daily lives by noticing, appreciating, and being present with things as they are.

Hope to see you again! ๐ŸŒฑ

Hey there! For those who signed up for the run this evening, we will not be going ahead with the outdoor run due to PSI levels being in the unhealthy range.

Instead, weโ€™ll have one of our community leaders guide us in a yoga sequence! ๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿป (albeit outdoors) Alongside our usual 5min opening and closing meditation, and optional dinner after :)

No sign-ups nor yoga mats required, gathering at the same time and place!
