Effort is the unconstrained willingness to persevere through difficulty.

Vulnerability in the face of constant change is what we share, whatever our present condition.

If you go deeper and deeper into your own heart, you'll be living in a world with less fear, isolation and loneliness.

Resilience is based on compassion for ourselves as well as compassion for others

In a situation of potential conflict, let compassion guide you.

Training our mind through meditation does not mean forcibly subjugating it or beating it into shape.

In our own lives and in our communities, we need to find a way to include others rather than exclude them. We need to find a way to allow our pain and suffering, individually and collectively.
