True freedom means freeing oneself from the dictates of the ego and its accompanying emotions.

You can't be at the same time a spiritual master and someone who is always angry. It doesn't work.

It is in learning music that many youthful hearts learn to love.

For a few moments, be aware of your potential for change. Whatever your present situation is, evolution and transformation are always possible. At the least, you can change your way of seeing things and then, gradually, your way of being as well.

Peace is not weak. Standing up to a tank is harder than dropping a suicide bomb

Meditation gives you more inner strength and confidence, and if you don't feel vulnerable, you can put that to the service of others. So it's not just about sitting and cultivating caring mindfulness. It's building up a way of being and then using it for the service of others.

Let us live simply in the freshness of the present moment, in the clarity of pure awakened mind.
