Every Morning We Are Born Again

This quote is not from the Buddha. Researchers have identified the real source as Jack Kornfield's Buddha's Little Instruction Book (page 79), where it appears as Kornfield's own writing rather than a translation of scripture. The first half of the phrase is remarkably similar to a line by the 4th-century Greek poet Palladas, in a translation by Anselm Hollo. Buddhist canon does teach the importance of impermanence and present-moment awareness, but "every morning we are born again" is Kornfield's modern literary expression of that teaching, not a canonical saying.
