All teachings are mere references. The true experience is living your own life. Then, even the holiest of words are only words.

Use a mirror in difficult times. You will see both cause and resolution.

By being receptive, we can avail ourselves of the spiritual wealth available to us. By being open, we can receive things beyond what we ourselves might imagine.

We need faith, not because there are beings who will punish us or reward us, but because gods are a wonderful way of describing things that are happening to us.

Money is never more important than your body and mind, but you must work and support yourself. Never depend on others for your livelihood.

All teachings are mere references. The true experience is living your own life. Then, even the holiest of words are only words.

When it is time to part, then it is time to part. There should be no regrets. The beauty of marriage is like the fleeting perfection of a snowflake.
