Mother Earth is very talented. She has produced Buddhas, bodhisattvas, great beings.

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

Understanding means throwing away your knowledge.

If we face our unpleasant feelings with care, affection, and nonviolence, we can transform them into a kind of energy that is healthy and has the capacity to nourish us. By the work of mindful observation, our unpleasant feelings can illuminate so much for us, offering us insight and understanding into ourselves and society.

Anger is like a flame blazing up and consuming our self-control, making us think, say, and do things that we will probably regret later.

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.

One hour of compassionate deep listening can bring about transformation and healing.
