✨ To meditate on today

According to the Udâna, Bahiya, a sincere seeker, crosses the country to meet the Buddha and humbly asks him for a teaching that will help him live happily and in peace throughout his life. This morning, write in one sentence what you would like to learn in order to live more peacefully, then look today for a person, a text or a moment of silence that can teach you a little of it.
