We vastly underestimate the power of transformation of mind.

There is no such thing as good and bad in an absolute sense. There is only the good and bad- the harm in terms of happiness and suffering- that our thoughts and our actions do to ourselves and others.

When hearing a door creak, the optimist thinks it's opening and the pessimist thinks it's closing.

There is definitely openness to others' suffering that is dealt not with distress but with compassion.

Changing your attitude has a curative effect... Maybe you can go directly to a change of mind, a change of attitude.

Negative emotions like hatred destroy our peace of mind.

Genuine fearlessness arises with the confidence that we will be able to gather the inner resources to deal with any situation that comes our way.
