Consciousness

Enlightenment is a big word. It conjures images of sitting under a tree, renouncing your family, going to a monastery or living in a cave. None of these options look very attractive or practical in today’s world. How can you become enlightened while tending to your busy life?

Balancing the never-ending demands of a busy life with some peace and quiet is a challenge that might feel daunting. It doesn’t have to be that way! The teachings of Buddha do not ask that you remove yourself from everyday life and become a monk.
