Mindfulness

Sati or mindfulness is a state of being that one is aware of one's bodily action and mind or bodily and mental phenomenon that is happening at the present moment within oneself and one does not react to it but one clearly knows it and explores it with clear attention. There are some wholesome mental factors that accompanies right mindfulness, factors like faith, self-respect, conscience, non-attachment, good will, balance, tranquility of body and mind, lightness, softness, readiness, adaptability and straightness of body and mind. One can learn how to apply mindfulness to daily activities by learning and practising mindfulness meditation.

Agreeable

In Matugamasamyutta, Buddha told the Bhikkhus that if a woman (a man), who is beautiful (handsome, for man), wealthy, and virtuous; she is clever and industrious; and she begets children, she (he) is extremely agreeable to a man (a woman).

Proper training

Ven Sariputta gave a discourse on proper training to Ven Gulissani on one occasion at the Squirrels' Sanctuary.

One should be respectful and deferential towards his companions in the holy life. One should be skilled in good behaviour regarding seats. One should not enter the village too early or return late in the day. One should not go before the meal or after the meal to visit familes. One should not be naughty and personally vain. One should not be rough-tongued and loose-spoken. One should be easy to correct and should associate with good friends. One should guard the doors of his sense faculties. One should be moderate in eating. One should be devoted to wakefulness. One should be energetic. One should be established in mindfulness. One should be concentrated. One should be wise. One would apply himself to the higher Dhamma and the higher discipline. One should apply himself to those liberations that are peaceful and immaterial, transcending forms. One should apply himself to superhuman states.

I read and summaried the above from the Gulissani Sutta - Majjhima Nikaya, which was translated by Bhikkhu Nanamoli and Bhikkhu Bodhi.

Beauty of Awareness

Many things can not last long under the light of our awareness. They disappear with our awareness. Whatsoever deepens with our awareness is compassion, love and kindness, the quality of wholesomeness remains. This is the magic of awareness. This is the beauty of awareness. It is also called right mindfulness.
