In this reflection, Mingyur Rinpoche invites us to reconnect with Mother Earth—not only as our source of life, but also as a powerful teacher of impermanence, resilience, and interdependence. Through his own story of witnessing glacial retreat in the Himalayas, he offers a message of hope: even small efforts can create lasting impact.
“When you’re grounded amid others’ suffering, you can help them in a different way. It’s better for them—and for yourself. You’re not afraid of coming up against a person’s suffering, but you don’t merge and identify with it, so you’re free.” – Micael Inês
“I have had such a different mindset since I began practicing meditation. I didn’t believe in the power of meditation at first, but now I’m amazed by it — it’s real. I’ve really come to see the benefits of meditation!” – Yuki Kameda
“These seven ways can help us work with different mental disturbances and develop resilience. They’re good for physical and mental hygiene – and if they’re good for our health and mind, they’re good for our life.” – Mingyur Rinpoche
