Don't focus so much on your relationships. Have fun with them. Or if you don't have them, you don't want them, have fun with that.

You can stay in the safe, secure oblivion and pain of ignorance, not knowing, and just die. You'll just die, like everyone else, and shuffle into another incarnation that won't be very different.

Every time you sit down to meditate, you have to sit down with a resolve to win. You are going to sit there and will your mind to be happy, quiet and still.

To perfect your nature means to let go of this world and place your attention fully in the plane of enlightenment.

Real winning and losing all takes place at the meditation table. This is where the battles are. Winning is stopping thought. Losing is sitting there and being subjected to all kinds of ridiculous thoughts

Life has no meaning. It doesn't need a meaning. A meaning is an arbitrary thought formulation that we affix to it because we are in the mood. Life is its own raison d'etre.

The state between birth and death is not sympathetic. It is a flow system. Whatever your conscious level is, that is how you will reincarnate.
