Moment of Bunniness: Luna
Thank you to Courtney W. and her beautiful bun, Luna, for today’s moment of bunniness. Be sure to check out Courtney on IG and YouTube for beauty, fashion, food, travel, and the occasional glimpse of Luna!
I love this bunny quote because I am very much at the beginning of my own journey into the unknown, and the look of quiet anticipation on Luna’s face inspires me to be calm as I try to approach my new path with curiosity and openness.
Thank you, Luna, for sharing your experience of bunniness...

Moment of Bunniness: Bruce
Today’s feature bun, Bruce, was a rescue bunny who had two homes before his foster home, and only after that did he find his forever home with Jennie R. Now, Jennie tells me Bruce is “a much loved happy house rabbit” and it sounds like they both continue to benefit from having found one another at just the right time in their lives.
Big bunny thanks to Jennie for the beautiful photo. Thanks also to Bruce for the reminder that life encompasses many things and that patience is crucial because bu...

In Memoriam: Zooky
Today’s post is a special one to celebrate the long and joyful life of a Bunny Buddhism bun who recently earned his angel wings. Many of you may remember Zooky as the featured Facebook quote photo bun on book release day (April 1, 2014). Here’s a special reprise of his original photo, with thanks to Bryan and Allison G.

Moment of Bunniness: Dynah
Today’s moment of bunniness comes to us courtesy of Hazel E. and her adventurous bun, Dynah, who was a rescue from the good people at the MSPCA. Hazel tells me she made four trips to the shelter to adopt a kitten, but Dynah just kept popping up with a great big bunny hello every time Hazel walked by.
Well, Hazel and Dynah, I think your story is a perfect example of how we can hop into one another’s lives in the most unexpected ways. I am so glad you found each other and are sharing many moment...

Moment of Bunniness: Gus
With special thanks to Cindy F. for another perfect bunny pic, here is lovable Gus experiencing a moment of bunniness with a quote that is near and dear to my heart, especially during this chaotic time in my life. Thank you, Gus, for the reminder that we all have a perfectly calm inner bunny, even when it feels like the world is falling apart around us. All we need to do is keep trying to find it!

Managing My Bunny Energy
For those of you who may be wondering why Bunny Buddhism has been less active lately, I just wanted to let you know I’m dealing with a family crisis and need to focus my time and energy on that right now. I plan to respond to all bunny photo submissions and be back to full speed as soon as possible. Thanks in advance for your patience and understanding.
Bunniness is the energy of true presence

Moment of Bunniness: Nibbler
This sneaky moment of bunniness comes to us from Karen N. and her bun, Nibbler. Karen took this photo of Nibbler when she caught him listening to her while she was working from home. Here’s a quote about listening to help us all remember that every bunny has a message to share, if only we take the time to listen!

Moment of Bunniness: Snickers
Snickers looks to me like a bunny who is ready for anything, so I thought this quote about readiness might suit her. Thank you to Heather W. for the wonderful photo!
For quite some time, I’ve been a fan of the quote, “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear,” even though I know fastidious Buddhist scholars would tell me it has not been definitively linked to Buddhism (see http://www.fakebuddhaquotes.com/when-the-student-is-ready-the-teacher-will-appear/).
Nevertheless, I have found t...
