To me, health is a balanced mind. A balanced mind knows how to get enough rest, how to eat properly, how to exercise. I have come out as just a balanced human being, and I don't know anything finer than that.

I was clinically depressed. I was paranoid. I was agoraphobic. I would have days at a time of not being able to even bathe or brush my teeth.

Once the mind is met with understanding, it can always find its way home.

Until you look forward to all criticism, your Work's not done.

With inquiry, every painful story unravels. Freedom is possible in every moment.

If we are in silence - in absolute silence with no thoughts - for 10 minutes, it's only a thought that tells us we were silent for 10 minutes. Our only proof is a thought.

Being present means living without control and always having your needs met.
