Since everything is already the Supreme Buddha Nature, where are you going to find it?

Love causes us to be deeply connected in an unspoken way. It happens when we're really available, really open.

The Buddha's insight into the middle way is not simply about a balance between extremes. This conventional understanding misses the deeper revelation of the middle way as being the very nature of unexcelled enlightenment. The middle way is an invitation to leap beyond nirvana and samsara and to realize the unborn Buddha mind right in the middle of everywhere.

There's a great space in which this moment takes place. There's a great silence that is listening to the thoughts.

When someone says, 'I love you,' he is telling you about himself, not you. When someone says, 'I hate you,' she is telling you about herself, not you. World views are self views-literally.

Fear is very often a part of the spiritual path. When people sit down and meditate it's not at all uncommon for fear to arise at some point.

Meditation is a dress rehearsal for death.
