The Dhamma is revealing itself in every moment, but only when the mind is quiet can we understand what it is saying, for the Dhamma teaches without words.

If you haven't cried deeply a number of times, your meditation hasn't really begun.

If you see certainty in that which is uncertain, you are bound to suffer

Where does peace arise? Peace arises whenever we let something go.

Peace is within oneself to be found in the same place as agitation and suffering. It is not found in a forest or on a hilltop, nor is it given by a teacher. Where you experience suffering, you can also find freedom from suffering. Trying to run away from suffering is actually to run toward it.

The mind of one who practises doesn't run away anywhere, it stays right there. Good, evil, happiness and unhappiness, right and wrong arise, and he knows them all. The meditator simply knows them, they don't enter his mind. That is, he has no clinging. He is simply the experiencer.

The heart is just the heart; thoughts and feelings are just thoughts and feelings. Let things be just as they are.
