The goal of Buddhism is to create Buddhas, not Buddhists, as the goal of Christianity is to create Christs, not Christians.

Awareness isn’t something we own; awareness isn’t something we possess. Awareness is actually what we are.

You can't look at what's looking. You can't think about that which is prior to thought.

When we're in our true being, the purpose of life is to feel that every moment is the purpose.

If you want to know something, go elsewhere. If you want to un-know everything, then sit and listen.

When you rest in quietness and your image of yourself fades, and your image of the world fades, and your ideas of others fade, what's left? A brightness, a radiant emptiness that is simply what you are.

The biggest barrier to awakening is the belief that it is something rare.
