When we are angry, our anger is our very self. To suppress or chase away our anger is to suppress or chase away ourselves. When anger is born, we can be aware that anger is an energy in us, and we can change that energy into another kind of energy. If we want to transform it, first we have to know how to accept it.

Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky. Conscious breathing is my anchor.

Our life is a manifestation, and we can very well make that manifestation beautiful and meaningful and have a good influence.

You can only recognize your happiness against the background of suffering.

In Buddhist culture, offering food to the monk symbolizes the action of goodness, and if you have no opportunity to support the practice of spirituality, then you are somehow left in the realm of darkness.

It is not impermanence that makes us suffer. What makes us suffer is wanting things to be permanent when they are not.

Meditation is not to escape from society, but to come back to ourselves and see what is going on. Once there is seeing, there must be acting. With mindfulness, we know what to do and what not to do to help.
