| ” The one most frequently repeated command in the Bible is not “love your neighbor,” but “fear not.” And if there is one thing that we need in our world, if there’s one thing that we should write on our mirror and see every morning when we look into the mirror, it’s “fear not.” If we went into the day with that command deeply tattooed on our heart, “fear not,” we’d be completely different people and create a completely different world–a world of faith.”
– Brother David Steindl-Rast |

| How Ignorance Causes Suffering
This is what we call ignorance: not recognizing the void nature of phenomena and assuming that phenomena possess the attribute of true existence although in fact they are devoid of it. With ignorance comes attachment to all that is pleasant to the ego as well as hatred and repulsion for all that is unpleasant. In that way the three poisons–ignorance, attachment, and hatred–come into being. Under the influence of these three poisons, the mind becomes like a servant running here and there. This is how the suffering of samsara is built up. It all derives from a lack of discernment and a distorted perception of the nature of phenomena. – Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, “An Investigation of the Mind” |

| “The outer spaces [simply] represent the beginning of our journey home. The light of the Divine is dim at first, and her voice is faint. But both the radiance and the God song increase in clarity and volume the closer we come to the center.”

| What the Buddha Never Said
When the Buddha speaks, it is said, he always intends his words to lead to the welfare and happiness of the hearers. But his words are not always tied to the theme of “suffering and its cessation.” To insist on confining them to this topic is to drastically narrow the range of the dharma. – Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi, “‘I Teach Only Suffering and the End of Suffering'” |

| Facing Fear
In surrendering to our deepest fears, we put ourselves in touch with the fundamental awareness of just being–the true ground that is always available to us. – Ezra Bayda, “More than This Body “ |

| We all have those “good” and “bad” moments. Can we see the good ones, in ourselves and others, and ignore the bad ones? Can we offer to others what we wish for ourselves, unconditional love and acceptance, even when we have not been our best?

| Test the Dharma through Action
Don’t give final authority to your own ideas. You have to test the teachings, and your ideas, in the laboratory of your actions. – Larry Rosenberg, “The Right to Ask Questions” |

| This water’s shape is round or square according to the container that holds it. In the spring warmth, it is liquid; in the winter cold, it is solid. When its path is open, it flows. When its path is obstructed, it stands quiet. How vast it is, yet its source is so small it is difficult to find. How wonderful it is in its streams, which flow endlessly. In the jade rivulets, the footprints of dragons remain. In the deep pond, water holds the bright halo of the autumn moon. On the tip of the king’s pen, water becomes the compassion of clemency. On the willow branch, it becomes the clear fresh balm of compassion.Only one drop of the water of compassion is needed and the Ten Directions are all purified. “Verses of Consecration” from “Chanting of the Heart” by Thich Nhat Hanh “There is a wrong understanding of Mindfulness-they may believe that mindfulness in an instrument that can help business men get more money and the military to kill better. That is why if you have not seen the seven other elements in the path of Mindfulness, you have not seen Mindfulness, and that is not Right Mindfulness.” The other seven that he “We have seen that one person can bring liberation and healing to thousands, even millions of people. Each one of us, whether a factory worker, a politician, a waitress, businessperson, an entertainer, or a father coaching a soccer game, shares this deep desire. But it is important to remember that to realize this wonderful ambition we must first take care of ourselves. To bring happiness to others, we must be happiness. And this is why we always train ourselves to first take care of our own bodies and minds. Only when we are solid can we be our best and take good care of our loved ones.” I have noticed that people are dealing too much with the negative, with what is wrong. They do not touch enough on what is not wrong. . . . Why not try the other way, to look into the patient and to see positive things, to just touch those things and make them bloom? – Thich Nhat Hanh, “Interbeing with Thich Nhat Hanh: An Interview” |

| We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us something is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit.
