Anger is like a storm rising up from the bottom of your consciousness. When you feel it coming, turn your focus to your breath. Breathe in deeply to bring your mind home to your body. Then look at, or think of, the person triggering this emotion: with mindfulness, you can see that they are unhappy and suffering. You can see their wrong perceptions. You'll feel motivated by a desire to say or do something to help the other person suffer less. This means compassionate energy has been born in your heart. And when compassion appears, anger is deleted.

Seek peace. When you have peace within, real peace with others will be possible.

To make peace, our hearts must be at peace with the world.

Breathe and you dwell in the here and now, breath and you see impermanence is life.

The amount of happiness that you have depends on the amount of freedom you have in your heart.

We inter-breath with the rain forests, we drink from the oceans. They are part of our own body.

The essence of nonviolence is love. Out of love and the willingness to act selflessly, strategies, tactics, and techniques for a nonviolent struggle arise naturally. Nonviolence is not a dogma; it is a process.
