Meditation is the quickest path to enlightenment.

It doesn't matter what your work really is. It is exciting to do well at something. It empowers you.

There's no point in getting frustrated at yourself. Just be truthful.

You have to refine your being. You have to go through all of the stages and steps of erasing yourself through service to others with purity, humility, integrity.

If we get too caught up in the rhetoric of meditation, we will miss the point. The point was to go beyond rhetoric.

I don't know how much you know about Zen, but you'll know less when I'm done with you.

What is essential is to draw the energy of love from your heart and bring it into your mind, as San Exubere said: "it is only with the heart that one sees rightly. What is essential is invisible to the eye."
