The very best players, when they are practicing, put everything they've got into it. But then they leave it for a while. And it's the same in dharma practice.

There are other ways of benefiting than by being a recognized tulku and sitting on a throne.

Our pure awareness is not male or female.

If you've made a lot of negative seeds, and not a lot of positive seeds, even though you meet with the dharma, you're going to have problems.

When one has a decisive realization of the inherent nature of the mind, which has no ego, it has no sense of duality between oneself and the cup, and a deep sense of interpenetration of the whole dharma. Then whatever we do is spontaneously perfect Buddha activity. And anybody who is even slightly tuned in will get a very deep experience of that.

As women become more educated and confident, they can start adding their voice.

If you just follow your inner calling, then you just go ahead.
