Your happiness and suffering depend on your actions and not on my wishes for you.

Our ideas of self are created by identification. The less we cling to ideas of self, the freer and happier we will be.

An honorable spiritual practice recognizes the losses we have suffered, tells our story, and sheds our tears to free us from the past.

We do not have to improve ourselves; we just have to let go of what blocks our heart.

Everybody needs to take some time, in some way, to quiet themselves and really listen to their heart.

When we have for so long been judged by everyone we meet, just to look into the eyes of another who does not judge us can be extraordinarily healing.

Virtue and integrity are necessary for genuine happiness. Guard your integrity with care.
