Moment of Bunniness: Webster

Today we have Webster the bunny, sharing bunniness with us while he spends some quality time with his plush bunny friend. Thank you to Kate Williams Hays for this adorable photo. Webster definitely knows how to be comfortable around others…I think we can all learn a lot from him!

Moment of Bunniness: Bailey

Today, we have a moment of bunniness from Bailey, who clearly has inner and outer bunniness to spare. Thank you to Dee C. for the beautiful photo. Bailey’s message is a simple one to understand, but that doesn’t mean it is easy to remember and integrate into our daily lives!

Bailey knows inner bunniness begins with a proper diet, so he wanted me to share his secret with all of you. He is grateful to the San Diego House Rabbit Society for his healthy bunny meal plan. Don’t forget that you can donate part of your purchase of the Bunny Buddhism book to the House Rabbit Society by ordering your copy through Amazon Smile!

Moment of Bunniness: Barney

Thank you to Suzy F. for today’s moment of bunniness featuring Barney. Barney appears to be very serious…perhaps it is because his message is so important. Thanks, Barney, for reminding us not to get too caught up in our thoughts. We will try to emulate you and be present so we can truly experience the bunniness that is available to us in each and every moment!

Moment of Bunniness: Geoffrey

Thank you to Fabienne for sharing today’s delightful photo of Geoffrey. Geoffrey’s message reminds us to be curious and attentive as much as we can so we don’t miss the amazing things that happen around us every single day. All we have to do is watch for them!

Moment of Bunniness: Toodles

Big bunny thanks to Julie R. for today’s pic of Toodles the explorer bun. The message of bunniness from Toodles is a great reminder that the opportunity for joy is with us at all times, no matter where we are!

Moment of Bunniness: Jenny & Jack

With the recent publication of my elephant journal article, I’ve been thinking a lot about compassion.

In keeping with the theme of compassion, I thought today might be a good day share this moment of bunniness featuring Austin T’s buns, Jenny and Jack. Sadly, Jack suffers from head tilt, which many bunny enthusiasts will recognize as a scary condition that is often difficult to diagnose and treat.

Luckily, Jack has his human, Austin, and his bun-wife, Jenny, to look after him, and he even has the strength to share with us this reminder that our setbacks can help us learn and grow as we hop our journey through life.

Kudos to Austin for providing such a loving and compassionate home for his two beautiful bunnies!

Bunny Art: @BearAndInk

Every so often, someone will tweet something to @BunnyBuddhism that really catches my eye. Most frequently, it is either an adorable photo of a bunny or else it is some kind of bunny artwork. This week, I was struck by a comic featuring a Bunny Buddhism quote, thanks to @BearAndInk:

It is always interesting to me to see @BunnyBuddhism tweets finding new homes and being used in new ways. When I tweet a certain message, I of course have some idea of what it means to me. Even more interesting, though, is the way the same words might affect someone else. It never in a million years would have occurred to me to do a Bunny Buddhism comic, and yet here one was, suddenly appearing in my feed.
