“ Feel the feelings and drop the story. ”

“ We can use our difficulties and problems to awaken our hearts. ”

“ There's no certainty about anything. This basic truth hurts, and we want to run away from it. ”

“ True compassion does not come from wanting to help out those less fortunate than ourselves. ”

“ The truth you believe and cling to makes you unavailable to hear anything new. ”

“ Things are as bad and as good as they seem. Theres no need to add anything extra. ”

“ To live fully is to be always in no-man's-land, to experience each moment as completely new and fresh. ”

“ Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It's a relationship between equals. ”

“ Meditation practice is not about later when you get it all together. ”
