The only way to live is by accepting each minute as an unrepeatable miracle.

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 light around someone who speaks truth, who consistently acts with compassion for all, even in great difficulty, is visible to all around them.

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

For most of us, generosity is a quality that must be developed. We have to respect that it will grow gradually; otherwise our spirituality can become idealistic and imitative, acting out the image of generosity before it has become genuine.

All of spiritual practice is a matter of relationship: to ourselves, to others, to life's situations.

True love is not for the faint-hearted.
