“You should settle the issue right there. One who runs away from suffering out of fear is the most foolish person of all. He will simply increases his stupidity endlessly.”

To give up doing evil is more important than making merit.

The ladle is in the soup pot every day, but it doesn’t know the taste of the soup. You must reflect and meditate.

These days people don’t search for the Truth. People study simply in order to find knowledge necessary to make a living.

Isn’t it wonderful how the sky can take that dirty water and change it into pure, clean water? Your mind can do the same with your defilements if you let it.

People go through life blindly, ignoring death like revellers at a party feasting on fine foods. They ignore that later they will have to go to the toilet, so they do not bother to find out where there is one.

If you let go completely you will have complete peace.

If you reflect in this way, you will have peace. Wherever you are, you will have this attitude of practice with you constantly.

I love sharing my story. It’s endlessly healing.

If I wasn’t a musician… I think I’d just be endlessly traveling.

So endlessly, still expecting to be believed. We are accustomed to the contempt inherent in the political lie.

All your soft wild promises were words, birds, endlessly in flight.
