To live and breathe with an exclusive focus on one's small self, disconnected from the whole, is the definition of egotism.

If we weren't so dirt-conscious, we would obtain adequate vitamin B12 from soil, air, water, and bacteria, but we meticulously wash and peel our vegetables now - and with good reason, as we can't be sure our soil is not contaminated with pesticides and herbicides.

Milk is for babies. Human beings are the only species that drinks milk into adulthood and besides that we prefer to drink the milk of another species (enslaved cows and goats), and we have come to consider it normal when, it is actually a pretty perverse form of sexual abuse!

One's knowledge of karma should not be used to judge others. You should ask yourself: Do I like where I am going, or do I want to change my direction?

We create the world we live in. If we want to change what we don't like in the world, we must start by changing what we don't like about ourselves.

What we see in the world around us is just a reflection of what is inside of us.

What we do to others will come back to us. You can't expect to be happy by causing unhappiness to others.
