There are a lot of stuff going on around us.
It is easy to get lost with all the din of outside world. Most of the times we
don’t even remember what actions we were performing just 10 minutes ago! Majority
of us are in such a situation nowadays for many variety of reasons.
It is in this context when one can bring his
or her attention to everything that is happening only at the present moment
becomes very critical. This process is given the name Mindfulness.
This activity enhances the quality of our life. It has its origins in the
Buddhist traditions, basically carved out of Tibetan meditation techniques and
has flavors of Zen and Vipassana.
