Madrone Mountain Meditation

Where Is the Real Temple?


Listen Later

Today’s reflection reminds us that the true place of practice isn’t a building, a shrine, or a sacred location — it’s the heart. We can visit temples, light candles, bow, and pray, but lasting transformation happens only when we quiet the thinking mind and look within. The brain analyzes, remembers, imagines — but it also deceives. The heart is where Buddha nature, Christ consciousness, and the God-within can be found. Through mindfulness — watching each thought and the emotion that follows it, then letting it go — we slowly open the heart and uncover the treasure already waiting there. Your real temple is within you. Keep practicing, keep looking inward, and don’t give up.
