There's nothing to prove, nothing to figure out, nothing to get, nothing to understand. When we finally stop explaining everything to ourselves, we may discover that in silence, complete understanding is already there.

We've formed many a theory and belief, but as we look about the human world, it is clear that nobody actually knows what's going on. Yet claims to Truth are being made at every hand, including the claim that there is no Truth.

And here we are with our improved human world that we've spent a great deal of time and energy working on. We've improved the rivers and the lakes and the land and our society and our ways of living to the point where we now wonder if the human race will survive.

Whatever the world dishes up, we take it on--not on our own terms, but on the world's.

True freedom doesn't lie in the maximization of choice, but, ironically, is most easily found in a life where there is little choice.

Mindfulness of the body is awareness of... the taste and smell of this moment.

Nothing holds us back but our thoughts.
