Be at rest for Peace

Just stop and the world becomes natural and right.

This can be the only way.

I like this one Ta-Wan. Saturday I had to drive a few hours (had a funeral to attend) and found my 'monkey mind' chattering like crazy. I told myself to stop and just drive...feel the car, the tires on the road...and I began enjoying the birds in flight, the floating clouds and other cars as they passed by. The monkeys quieted, peace was restored.

It is the only way.
