There are two primary branches of Buddhism, Theravada and Mahayana Buddhism. Each follow the same teachings of the Buddha however the primary difference between the two lies in who may achieve enlightenment.
In Theravada Buddhism, the oldest and more conservative of the branches, only monks may achieve this state of being. If you are familiar with the wonderful teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh, then you are familiar with Theravada Buddhism.
Whereas in Mahayana Buddhism, any sentient being who follows the bodhisattva path may achieve awakening for the benefit of all. If you are familiar with Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche then you are familiar with Mahayana Buddhism. We follow Mahayana Buddhism.
Mindfulness originated with the Buddha over 2,500 years ago. And it is through the Buddhas teachings, as well as other highly regarded Buddhist teachers, that we offer this wisdom, kindness, compassion, and knowledge. Mindfulness is described many different ways with one of the more popular definitions as the non-judgmental awareness of us and our surroundings. And this is absolutely true.
I like to think it is about connecting with the world (and universe) through the realization that all living beings are connected. There is no separation. Therefor it is the letting go of concepts, ideas, and notions that bind us to where we are to where we want to be - living a more harmonious and balanced life.
As Siddhartha Gautama set out to find the cause of suffering in our world and if possible find a way stop or ease this suffering our mission is to promote the teachings of the Buddha in a modern and relatable way to help ease suffering in our world.
