But this was never the plan when I started running, and if you had asked me about meditation five years ago, my response would have mirrored so many other people's in suggesting meditation is nothing more than a waste of time, an excuse to sit still that my busy life did not give me the luxury to partake in.

In Tibet werden die Worte großer Meister in Büchern gesammelt, die den Titel "Ratschläge des Herzens" tragen. Diese Tradition greift der Dalai Lama hier auf.
