In mindfulness one is not only restful and happy, but alert and awake. Meditation is not evasion; it is a serene encounter with reality.

I am you and you are me; it is obvious we inter-are.

In one sheet of paper, we see everything else, the cloud, the forest, the logger. I am, therefore you are. You are, therefore I am. That is the meaning of the word "interbeing." We interare.

If in our daily life we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it. This is the most basic kind of peace work.

Smile, breathe, go slowly.

The present moment is the only moment available to us and it is the door to all other moments.

Our own lives are the instruments with which we experiment with truth.
