4/10 A flower blooms beneath each step

Legend says that when the baby Buddha was born, he took seven steps, and a lotus flower appeared under each step. When you practice walking meditation, you can do the same. Visualize a lotus, a tulip or a gardenia blooming under each step the moment your foot touches the ground. If you practice beautifully like this, your friends will see fields of flowers everywhere you walk. ~ Thich Nhat Hanh, The Long Road Turns to Joy
