“The principle of nowness is very important to any effort to establish an enlightened society. You may wonder what the best approach is to helping society and how you can know that what you are doing is authentic and good. The only answer is nowness. The way to relax, or rest the mind is nowness and is through the practice of meditation. In meditation you take an unbiased approach. You let things be as they are, without judgement and in that way you yourself learn to be.” Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche
