A Bodhisattva Doesn't Have To Be Perfect.

We Are Always Running, And It Has Become A Habit. We Struggle All The Time, Even During Our Sleep. We Are At War With Ourselves, And We Can Easily Start A War With Others.

Preventing War Is Much Better Than Protesting Against The War. Protesting The War Is Too Late.

Meditation Is Not An Escape From Life... But Preparation For Really Being In Life.

If We Are Not Fully Ourselves, Truly In The Present Moment, We Miss Everything.

We Must Look Deeply Into The Nature Of Our Volition To See Whether It Is Pushing Us In The Direction Of Liberation From Suffering And Toward Peace And Compassion, Or In The Direction Of Affliction And Misery. What Is It That We Really Want Deep In Our Heart? Is It Money, Fame, Power? Or Is It Finding Inner Peace, Being Able To Live Life Fully And Enjoy The Present Moment?
