Buddhism is the study of changing who we are, modifying or perhaps totally restructuring ourselves as perceivers.

The reason you study with a teacher is primarily for the empowerments, for someone who is enlightened to transfer power to you. What is most important is that the student uses that power intelligently and wisely.

I like Miracles. They inspire me. Miracles are the fun of enlightenment. When a teacher does a miracle, and everyone sees it, they have faith in what the teacher has to say about self-discovery.

Think about the flowers. Life is just a bunch of pretty pictures. All this is supposed to do is force you beyond the mind, when you realize that you can't figure it out.

There's a resonance inside us, a sense of who we are. We're a multi-bodied traveler. We're an essence. We're a feeling, an awareness that has an ancient existence.

At extremely high processing speeds we are able to find patterns of order in what other people would perceive as chaos.

My god, life is beautiful! Look at the colors! if you are blind, look at the colors of your mind.
