If ruling our world stems from developing certainty in our sanity, how do we discover it? The Shambhala teachings instruct us to "put our mind of fearfulness in the cradle of loving-kindnes."

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

I think there is a tendency for people to become more isolated as they move along a spiritual path. With more development, people get more isolated. Also, as they have more wealth, they get more isolated.

The principles of Buddhism and Shambhala can be effective in helping the course of what is happening in the world.

Meditation practice is relevant because in meditation our conceptual mind relaxes and we can feel who we are at heart.
