23:05 (Jon Kabat-Zinn ): The Definition of Mindfulness Mindfulness is awareness that arises through paying attention, on purpose, in the present moment, non-judgmentally
A baby’s attention was caught by an apple taken away from a fruit basket, put into a bag, brought to a counter, waited for payment, brought out of a store, fell out of the bag which gave way, partly smashed on impact, rolled up to the baby’s foot. The baby acted as he always had, reached down to take it and held it up to his mouth for a bite. He did not feel all the pleasure her mother felt when she found the beautiful, unblemished apple, how upset she was when she saw her apple fell out of the bag, smashed on impact, and the loss of money. What have cultivated all the unhappy feeling in her bring up while her baby innocently took the smashed and dirty apple having no feelings of good not bad. Are we observer or the perpetrator of our feelings?
