You fall in love with your heart; you fall out of love with your head.

Meditation is simply getting to know your mind.

I still noticed that little streak of rebelliousness coming up in me again - the same sense of dissatisfaction I had felt earlier with the empty rituals and institutionalized values of all religious traditions.

The truth about who we really are, beyond all appearances, is knowledge worth seeking.

Sometimes we are too polite with our suffering and allow it to dominate our life.

It is not about how much you give, it is about how much you can let go with your mind.

That is the essence and mission of 'rebel buddha': to free us from the illusions we create by ourselves, about ourselves, and from those that masquerade as reality in our cultural and religious institutions.
