It is said that if one chooses to pray to a rock with enough devotion, even that rock will come alive.

The appreciation of life does not require wealth or plenty. It requires only gratitude for the beauty of the world.

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.

Muddy water will become clear if allowed to stand undisturbed, and so too will the mind become clear if it is allowed to be still.

Rain scatters plum petals; Weeping stains the earth. One can only take shelter And wait for clearing.

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

Once you have seen the face of God, you see the same face on everyone you meet.
