Mindfulness helps you go home to the present. And every time you go there and recognize a condition of happiness that you have, happiness comes.

When you begin to see that your enemy is suffering, that is the beginning of insight.

The moment you wake up, right away, you can smile... You are aware that a new day is beginning, that life is offering you twenty-four brand new hours to live, and that that's the most precious of gifts.

Contemplate to see that awakened people, while not being enslaved by the work of serving living beings, never abandon their work of serving living beings.

Contemplating the bowl, it is possible to see the interdependent elements which give rise to the bowl.

Reconciliation is a deep practice that we can do with our listening and our mindful speech. To reconcile means to bring peace and happiness to nations, people, and members of our family.... In order to reconcile, you have to possess the art of deep listening.

If we practice mindfulness, we always have a place to be when we are afraid.
