Tertön Sogyal, the Tibetan Mystic, said that he was not really impressed by someone who could turn the floor into the ceiling or fire into water. A real miracle, he said, was if someone could liberate just one negative emotion.

We must never forget that it is through our actions, words, and thoughts that we have a choice.

The whole of meditation practice can be essentialized into these 3 crucial points: Bring your mind home. Release. And relax!

The most essential thing in life is to establish an unafraid, heartfelt communication with others.

Sitting like a mountain let your mind rise and fly and soar.

When we finally know we are dying, and all other sentient beings are dying with us, we start to have a burning, almost heartbreaking sense of the fragility and preciousness of each moment and each being, and from this can grow a deep, clear, limitless compassion for all beings.
