Happiness is sorrow; sorrow is happiness. There is happiness in difficulty; difficulty in happiness. Even though the ways we feel are different, they are not really different, in essence they are the same. This is the true understanding transmitted from Buddha to us.

When you do something, you should burn yourself up completely, like a good bonfire, leaving no trace of yourself.

We must exist right here, right now!

If you can just appreciate each thing, one by one, then you will have pure gratitude. Even though you observe just one flower, that one flower includes everything

We die, and we do not die.

Religion is not any particular teaching. Religion is everywhere.

Everything is perfect, but there is a lot of room for improvement.
