We are all capable of becoming fundamentalists because we get addicted to other people's wrongness.
Pema ChodronThe difference between theism and nontheism is not whether one does or does not believe in God. . . Theism is a deep-seated conviction that there's some hand to hold: if we just do the right things, someone will appreciate us and take care of us. . . Nontheism is relaxing with the ambiguity and uncertainty of the present moment without reaching for anything to protect ourselves.
Pema ChodronThe idea of karma is that you continually get the teaching that you need to open your heart.
