We Have To Have A Purpose Greater

A Calm Mind Releases The Most Precious Capacity A Human Being Can Have: The Capacity To Turn Anger Into Compassion, Fear Into Fearlessness, And Hatred Into Love.

Don't Think The Purpose Of Meditation Is To Go Deep Into Consciousness, Wrap A Blanket Around Yourself, And Say, 'how Cozy! I'm Going To Curl Up In Here By Myself; Let The World Burn.' Not At All. We Go Deep Into Meditation So That We Can Reach Out Further And Further To The World Outside.

The Real Essentials Of Life - Compassion, Kindness, Good Will, Forgiveness - Are What Is Fundamental To Living As A True Human Being.

Every Human Heart Has A Deep Need To Love - To Be In Love, Really, With All Of Life. This Is The Kind Of Love That Comes When The Mind Is Still. . . . Be Still And Know That We Are All God’s Children; Then You Will Be In Love With All.

Mastery Does Not Come From Dabbling. We Have To Be Prepared To Pay The Price. We Need To Have The Sustained Enthusiasm That Motivates Us To Give Our Best.
