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

Thoughts are just moving through consciousness. They have no power. Nothing has reality until you reach it, grab it, and somehow impregnate it with the power of belief.

The truth is that you already are what you are seeking.

We must leave the entire collection of conditioned thought behind and let ourselves be led by the inner thread of silence into the unknown, beyond where all paths end, to that place where we go innocently or not at all, not once but continually.

The more honest and authentic we are, the more deeply we go into the mystery of our own being.

Enlightenment is, in the end, nothing more than the natural state of being.

You think that enlightenment is something other than what is happening right now. This is your primary mistake.
