Once we see that everything is impermanent and ungraspable and that we create a huge amount of suffering if we are attached to things staying the same, we realize that relaxing and letting go is a wiser way to live. Letting go does not mean not caring about things. It means caring about them in a flexible and wise way.

As we willingly enter each place of fear, each place of deficiency and insecurity in ourselves, we will discover that its walls are made of untruths, of old images of ourselves, of ancient fears, of false ideas of what is pure and what is not.

May you know the beauty of your own true nature.

Wherever you are is the perfect place to awaken. This moment is the exact place to practice compassion and loving awareness. You have all the ingredients to breathe and find freedom just where you are.

The awakened heart and mind can be experienced as clarity itself, pure knowing.

There is beauty to be found in the changing of the earth’s seasons, and an inner grace in honouring the cycles of life.

The things that matter most in our lives are not fantastic or grand. They are the moments when we touch one another.
