Everything in the world is gloriously meaningless.

People become concerned with being more humble than other people.

Life and Reality are not things you can have for yourself unless you accord them to all others. They do not belong to particular persons any more than the sun, moon and stars.

Parts exist only for purposes of figuring and describing, and as we figure the world out we become confused if we do not remember this all the time.

I was talking to a Zen master the other day and he said, "You shall be my disciple."I looked at him and said, "Who was Buddha's teacher?" He looked at me in a very odd way for a moment and then he burst into laughter and handed me a piece of clover.

Spiritual awakening is the difficult process whereby the increasing realisation that everything is as wrong as it can be flips suddenly into the realisation that everything is as right is it can be. Or better, everything is as It as it can be.

Basically, there is simply nothing to worry about, because you yourself are the eternal energy of the universe.
