Buddhism: Religion or Science of Mind?
For thousands of years, Buddhism has offered a compelling path for those seeking liberation from suffering. But is it a religion offering a set of beliefs for spiritual guidance, or a science investigating the nature of reality?

The Art of Meditation
Calm abiding’ means the mind resting peacefully. In order to pacify the mind, we start from different skillful means that enable us to diminish our thoughts. Having gradually reduced the flood of our thoughts, if we habituate ourselves to maintaining the mind in its natural state, thoughts will automatically be pacified.
“We can free ourselves from any kind of suffering
if we understand the true nature of mind.”
