Like gravity, karma is so basic we often don't even notice it.

For me, language and how I use it are very important. I held back on doing a poetry book, walking the fine line between trying to be helpful and just putting more junk out there.

The most important thing is having the right mind - a mind that can see it. Once you have an open mind, you see a lot of auspicious coincidence taking place.

Shambhala does have unique teachings, as do many Buddhist traditions. For example, certain teachings within Shambhala have to do with raising the personal windhorse, or the energy of the individual, so a person has good fortitude to be able to live a good life.

After you run, there's a sense of accomplishment; you feel like your life is meaningful. It's a moment of clarity.

Auspicious coincidence is the right thing happening at the right time.

Caring for others is the basis of worldly success.
