At one time I thought that if I could really understand renunciation and bodhichitta from the depths of my heart, then, for this lifetime that would be enough.

We're reborn every second, every moment.

To me the special quality (which of course many men have as well) is first of all a sharpness, a clarityIt cuts through - especially intellectual ossification. Itgets to the point. To me the dakini principle stands for the intuitive force.

I do think that someone who decides to devote themselves entirely to the spiritual life, that that is more meritorious.

The future of Dharma is in women's hands now because they have this energy which was never really tapped.

We're always given the message that our potential is so limited, which is so sad. Actually, our potential is infinite.

Joining the Sangha and renouncing worldly life is necessary in order to devote your whole life and all your energies toward the Dharma.
