It’s simply about us, about what we are doing right now. Observe yourself.

“The Dhamma is not far away. It’s right with us. The Dhamma isn’t about angels in the sky or anything like that. It’s simply about us, about what we are doing right now. Observe yourself. Sometimes there is happiness, sometimes suffering, sometimes comfort, sometimes pain… this is Dhamma…Just let the Dhamma flow into your heart as it reveals itself, and keep yourself continuously open to its flow in the present moment. What is ready to be retained (absorbed) will be so, and it will happen of it’s own accord, not through any determined effort on your part.”

Venerable Ajahn Chah
