He who dies before he dies does not die when he dies.

Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Tibetan, or other historical traditions, are all different streams in the same river, different currents in the same ocean. With the long view, we can trust that the seeds that we're planting are transforming the world.

The real meditation practice is how we live our lives from moment to moment to moment.

Even before smart phones and the Internet, we had many ways to distract our selves. Now that's compounded by a factor of trillions.

Mindfulness is so powerful that the fact that it comes out of Buddhism is irrelevant.

Just watch this moment, without trying to change it at all. What is happening? What do you feel? What do you see? What do you hear?

Perhaps the most "spiritual" thing any of us can do is simply to look through our own eyes, see with eyes of wholeness, and act with integrity and kindness.
