Today’s quote is from Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, the young Buddhist teacher who has been dubbed “the happiest man in the world.” This is it – yet another one of Tricycle‘s Daily Dharma quotes this week:

Awareness is the basis, or what you might call the “support,” of the mind. It is steady and unchanging, like the pole to which the flag of ordinary consciousness is attached. When we recognize and become grounded in awareness of awareness, the “wind” of emotion may still blow. But instead of being carried away by the wind, we turn our attention inward: Oh, this is what I’m feeling, this is what I’m thinking.
