The necessary condition for the existence of peace and joy is the awareness that peace and joy are available.

Look deeply; I arrive in every second to be a bud on a spring branch ... to be a jewel hiding itself in a stone.

Peace is present right here and now, in ourselves and in everything we do and see. Every breath we take, every step we take, can be filled with peace, joy, and serenity. The question is whether or not we are in touch with it. We need only to be awake, alive in the present moment.

When we give ourselves the chance to let go of all our tension, the body's natural capacity to heal itself can begin to work.

The heart of the matter is always our oneness with divine spirit, our union with all life.

Love doesn't have any color. Other people may discriminate against us, but what is more important is whether we discriminate against them. If we don't do that, we are a happier person, and as a happier person, we are in a position to help. And anger, this is not a help.

Every word, every look, every action, and every smile can bring happiness to others.
