It's wonderful to be alive and to walk on earth.

Many of us worry about the situation of the world . . . We need to remain calm, to see clearly. Meditation is a means to be aware, and to try to help.

Keeping your body healthy is an expression of gratitude to the whole cosmos — the trees, the clouds, everything.

The only way to ease our fear and be truly happy is to acknowledge our fear and look deeply at its source. Instead of trying to escape from our fear, we can invite it up to our awareness and look at it clearly and deeply.

Only your compassion and your loving kindness are invincible, and without limit.

Our capacity to make peace with another person and with the world depends very much on our capacity to make peace with ourselves.

In the mountains of wisdom no climbing is in vain.
