Quotes by Jean Smith  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“When your mind is stable, move into shikantaza by just sitting. Allow whatever comes up to come up, whether it is a sound or a thought or a physical sensation. Observe it until it drops away. Just let whatever is present be present. Continue this way until the end of your sitting period.”
Jean Smith, The Beginner's Guide to Walking the Buddha's Eightfold Path

“One friend experienced enormous dukkha when she realized that men no longer looked at her when she walked down the street.”
Jean Smith, The Beginner's Guide to Walking the Buddha's Eightfold Path

“If thoughts arise, observe them, but do not get hooked into stories about them; then let them “float away,” the way bubbles float up and away when a diver exhales under water.”
Jean Smith, The Beginner's Guide to Walking the Buddha's Eightfold Path
