To bring yourself love and happiness, do what you can to bring them to others.

My head monk asked how it was walking. I said it hurt without shoes. And he said, 'It hurts on the foot that's down, but the one that's up feels really good - so focus on that one'.

I went to medical school because I wanted to ask the big questions. Do we have a soul? Does God exist? What happens after death?

No matter what the situation, remind yourself "I have a choice."

Today I will gratefully receive all the gifts that life has to offer me. I will receive the gifts of sunlight and the sound of birds singing and spring showers. I will also be open to receiving from others, whether it is in the form of a material gift, a compliment or a prayer.

The use of love is to heal. When it flows without effort from the depth of the Self, love creates health.

Like the tiny spark of fire that consumes a forest, the spark of love is all you need to experience love in its full power and glory, in all its aspects, earthly and divine.
