This is a world of unhappy beings. They don't understand how simple it is to be happy. You just have to practice meditation. To meditate is to be happy.

It's not going to be easy. It's the earth. What creates power in your life is when you perfect your mind, your career, and your associations with others.

Your life either takes your energy or gives you energy. Set up your life so that it gives you energy.

I encourage you to make money and to become enlightened. The two are not necessarily different. Have fun with whatever you do because we are only here for a while.

It is in Zen practice that you gain power, balance and wisdom. The battles that you fight are within your own mind. That is where the real victories and defeats are.

If you can't think of an enlightened person positively, don't think of them at all.

If we try and direct our lives with only our limited rationalistic thoughts and our sense perceptions, then our actions and our activities will not be prefect.
