I can find only three kinds of business in the universe: mine, yours and God's. Much of our stress comes from mentally living out of our business. When I think, "You need to get a job, I want you to be happy, you should be on time, you need to take better care of yourself," I am in your business. When I'm worried about earthquakes, floods, war, or when I will die, I am in God's business. If I am mentally in your business or in God's business, the effect is separation.

I have never experienced a stressful feeling that wasn't caused by attaching to an untrue thought. Behind every uncomfortable feeling, there's a thought that isn't true for us.

The person who finds peace inside and lives it, is the one who teaches what true peace is.

The apparent craziness of the world, like everything else, is a gift that we can use to set our minds free.

It's our nature to be free, and until we're stuck in a stressful belief system, we're pretty happy.

I believe in the power of every human being to end suffering.

Even breathing is a contribution.
