I love to not defend ever and to open my mind and take in what can always add to me, not take away from me.

If you want to clean up the environment, start with your mind. It starts there!

A thought is harmless unless we believe it. It’s not our thoughts, but our attachment to our thoughts, that causes suffering. Attaching to a thought means believing that it’s true, without inquiring. A belief is a thought that we’ve been attaching to, often for years.

If you put your hand into a fire, does anyone have to tell you to move it? Do you have to decide? No: When your hand starts to burn, it moves. You don’t have to direct it; the hand moves itself. In the same way, once you understand, through inquiry, that an untrue thought causes suffering, you move away from it.

It's just a constant thing when the mind starts to wake up to itself.

We are never really in control. We just think we are when things happen to be going our way.
