This meditation is performed at the end of the day. Find a quiet place and ask yourself these eight questions. Don't judge your answers, simply hold onto your resolution to act more positively tomorrow.
Have I expressed kindness to at least one person today?
Have I tried to relieve one person's stress today?
Have I told someone, "I love you?"
Have I told someone I was happy for them?
Have I spent too much time trying to get something I wanted?
Have I avoided any unpleasant experiences or people?
Have I sought recognition for myself in any way?
Have I tried to shift blame to someone for my actions?
Taking time at the end of each day to consider these questions is a good way to engage the Buddha's Teaching in your life and to live by the principles of those Teachings.
