A simple but radical spiritual practice is to accept whatever arises in the Now, within and without.

There is another side to death. Whether death happens through an act of violence to a large number of people or to an individual, whether death comes prematurely through illness or accident, or whether death comes through old age, death is always an opening. So a great opportunity comes whenever we face death.

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

Knowing yourself as the awareness behind the voice is freedom.

Doing is never enough if you neglect Being.

Attention is the key to transformation- and full attention also implies acceptance.

Many people are so imprisoned in their minds that the beauty of nature does not really exist for them. They might say, 'What a pretty flower,' but that's just a mechanical mental labeling. Because they are not still, not present, they don't truly see the flower, don't feel it's essence, it's holiness-just as they don't know themselves, don't feel their own essence, their own holiness.
