FINDING MY RELIGION / Buddhist teacher and author Jack Kornfield on mindfulness, happiness and his own spiritual journey

Good interview with Jack Kornfield:

With all that's going on in people's busy lives, the Buddhist notion of 'staying in the moment' may seem like an admirable but too idealistic goal. 'Sounds great,' you might say, 'but who has time for that?' And yet, taking the time to slow down and focus on what's happening -- right here, right now -- can have tremendous benefits.

Jack Kornfield, the well-known Buddhist practitioner and writer, has spent many years teaching people how to live more mindfully despite the challenges of doing so in the modern world.
