Emotion in itself is not unhappiness. Only emotion plus an unhappy story is unhappiness

You can only lose something that you have, but you cannot lose something that you are.

Whenever you are engaged in something and there is an outpouring of energy, you are in enthusiasm.

Through death you find yourself, because you no longer identify with form. You realize you are not the form with which you had identified ­ neither the physical nor the psychological form of "me". That form goes. It dissolves and who you are beyond form emerges through the opening where that form was. One could almost say that every form of life obscures God.

Stress is a form of suffering, but it is accepted as normal. And it is normal in our world.

The great arises out of small things that are honored and cared for.

Death is a stripping away of all that is not you. The secret of life is to "die before you die" --- and find that there is no death.
