Maybe we have enough technology to save the planet but it is not enough because the people are not ready.

As long as you find something beautiful, good, and true to believe in and abide by, you have the equivalent of God in your life.

Because if the manifestations that happen in the present moment are beautiful and good, their continuation in the future will be also good and beautiful.

Meditation is to be aware of what is going on in your body, in your feelings, in your mind, and in the world.

Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky. Conscious breathing is my anchor.

If you are truly present and know how to take care of the present moment as best you can, you are doing your best for the future already.

Meditation is to be aware of what is going on - in our bodies, in our feelings, in our minds, and in the world. Each day...children die of hunger.... Yet the sunrise is beautiful, and the rose that bloomed this morning along the wall is a miracle. Life is both dreadful and wonderful. To practice meditation is to be in touch with both aspects. Please do not think we must be solemn in order to meditate. In fact, to meditate well, we have to smile a lot.
