Learn to watch your drama unfold while at the same time knowing you are more than your drama.

The root of compassion is not empathy; that is kindness. Kindness is great, but it is not the ultimate compassion. Ultimate compassion relieves the suffering that comes from separateness. The suffering that comes from separateness is relieved only when you are fully present with another person, not when you are separately present.

In meditation we can watch the itch instead of scratching it.

If I'm going to die, the best way to prepare is to quiet my mind and open my heart. If I'm going to live, the best way to prepare for it is to quiet my mind and open my heart.

At the moment when there's nothing more to lose, the Ego breaks open - and then we see who we are behind who we thought we were.

Be patient. You'll know when it's time for you to wake up and move ahead.

Each person tells you who they think they are, and who they think you are.
