When someone we love dies, we get so busy mourning what died that we ignore what didn't.

You and I are the force for transformation in the world. We are the consciousness that will define the nature of the reality we are moving into.

If you feel a sense of social responsibility, first of all keep working on yourself. Being peaceful yourself is the first step if you want to live in a peaceful universe.

The way you come to fully appreciate the infusion of the Spirit is to more and more come fully into the moment, where this moment is enough.

We gain internal freedom through external actions.

Suffering lets us see where are attachments are - and that helps us get free.

I don't think too much about the future. Not because I'm hiding my head in the sand but because I figured out that whatever the future was going to be, the thing I had to do was to quiet my mind and open my heart and do what I could to end suffering.
