Piyavadana

There are two things: to be and to do.

Don’t think too much about to do – to be is first.

To be peaceful. To be joyful. To be happy.

And then to do joyful things, to do happy things – on the basis of being.

So first you have to focus on the practice of being. Being fresh. Being peaceful. Being attentive. Being generous. Being compassionate.

This is the basic practice.
