Peace Requires Us To Surrender Our Illusions

We Do Not Have To Improve Ourselves; We Just Have To Let Go Of What Blocks Our Heart.

When Attachment Arises In The Place Of Love, It Sees The Other As Separate; It Grasps And Needs. Attachment Is Conditional; It Seeks Control And It Fear Loss. Ask Your Heart If Attachment Has Replaced Love. If We Speak To Our Heart, It Will Always Tell Us The Truth.

Once We See That Everything Is Impermanent And Ungraspable And That We Create A Huge Amount Of Suffering If We Are Attached To Things Staying The Same, We Realize That Relaxing And Letting Go Is A Wiser Way To Live. Letting Go Does Not Mean Not Caring About Things. It Means Caring About Them In A Flexible And Wise Way.

Equanimity Arises When We Accept The Way Things Are.

The Goal Of Practice Is Always To Keep Our Beginner's Mind.
