Obviously being relaxed doesn't mean that you make no effort.

Try to develop some genuine love and compassion, some real caring for others.

One of the beauties of the Buddhadharma is there are so many approaches, and not everything is right for everybody.

We're normally caught up in the current of our thinking, feelings and emotions. With awareness, we can observe it all without being swept away. This gives us access to something much vaster and deeper than our usual compressed minds. All of us can access this. It's not so difficult. With some instruction and practice, anybody can do it.

Tibetans are great with meritorious practices.

Buddhism helps us to overcome our endless ego grasping mind to open up to something so much more spacious and genuinely meaningful.

This is a time that calls for extreme restraint. In a world of outright aggression and violence there can be no winners. To respond to violence with counter-violence only throws oil on the fire.
