6. “If you just sit and observe,
you will see how restless your mind is…
over Mme it does calm, and when it does…
that's when your intuiMon starts to blossom
and you start to see things more clearly…
you see a tremendous expanse in the moment.
You see so much more than you could see before.”
-Steve Jobs

14. TELEPHONE MEDITATION
“The sound of the telephone does not irritate us anymore, because we can
consider it to be a bell of mindfulness.
When the first sound is heard, we stop talking, we stop thinking, we enjoy our
in-breath and our out-breath, and we smile.
When the telephone rings for the second Mme, we can sMll afford to breathe,
to smile, to enjoy ourselves. We don’t worry, because if the other person has
something really important to tell us, she will not hang up aber the second
ring…
When the third sound is heard, you can stand up, and you can walk in the direcMon of the telephone,
but you do it calmly, breathing and smiling while walking, and you pracMce walking meditaMon with
a lot of dignity. You don’t run like a rabbit, because you have quieted yourself. You make each step
like the steps made by a lion, very firm, very stable, and you are breathing in, calming, and breathing
out, smiling…
That is the joy of meditaMon, nourishing you with the element of stability and peace. When you pick
up the phone… [your voice] sounds peaceful and loving. At the other end of the line, people will be
glad to listen to your voice.”
-Thich Nhat Hanh

15. MINDFUL TECHNOLOGY
“Suppose you talk to your smartphone.
‘Dear friend, I suffer. What shall I do?’
And your smartphone says, ‘Oh! The first thing you have
to do is to breathe in mindfully and go back to yourself.’
This is the advice of a good teacher.
An electronic device can tell you, ‘Dear friend, you are
not in a good situaMon to do something. You have anger
in you. You have to go home and take care of your anger.’
When you are driving a car while falling asleep, a sensor
would detect that. It might invite the bell to sound and
say, ‘Dear friend, you are sleepy. Wake up! It’s dangerous
to drive in this condiMon.’ That is the pracMce of
mindfulness.”
-Thich Nhat Hanh
