If the chi is being wasted by useless activities, emotions and associations that drain us, then we don't have enough power when it comes time to perform.

There is another kind of wisdom, the wisdom of following - the wisdom of not taking the lead with your ego.

To be afraid of our next life because we don't feel we've done a good job with this life is not wise. It creates unhappiness now.

Everything is subtle. Everything has a million sides. Everything is a manifestation of god. Everything is light. All beings are infinite. All things are perfect, in their own way.

When there is time, there has to be suffering. Because in time there's desire and attachment and transition. This is the world of experience.

You have probably had past lives where you were in better stages of mind than you are in now.

At the end of each meditation session, bow your head toward the ground. Give away your meditation to the universe. Whether you feel you have done well or poorly, simply give your efforts to the universe.
