“See the world as a mirror. It is all a reflection of the mind. When you know this, you can grow in every moment, and every experience reveals truth and brings understanding.”

Whenever we feel that we are definitely right, so much so that we refuse to open up to anything or anybody else, right there we are wrong. It becomes wrong view.

I touch it and it rings! One day the wind may blow it off the shelf, or my elbow may knock it from the table.

The heart is the only book worth reading.

The only way to experience it is to put the teachings into practice. Once you taste it, you are no longer in any doubt about its flavour and you do not have to ask anyone else. The problem is solved.

We see that the sound is simply sound. If we understand like this, then there’s nothing more to it. We leave it be.

If it shouldn’t happen, it wouldn’t happen.

We need to develop meditation so that the understanding arises clearly within oneself. It is not the case that merely by listening to another’s explanation our defilements will disappear.

In practice, some come to see easily, some with difficulty. But whatever the case, never mind.

Only one book is worth reading: the heart.

Do everything with a mind that lets go. Do not expect praise or reward.

The mind is intrinsically tranquil. Out of this tranquility, anxiety and confusion are born. If one sees and knows this confusion, then the mind is tranquil once more.

Know and watch your heart. It’s pure but emotions come to colour it.

Don’t be attached to visions or lights in meditation, don’t rise or fall with them.

Where does peace arise? Peace arises whenever we let something go.

Find me a photographer, who will make time stand still capturing life’s precious moments.

If all we have is now baby, that’s alright I have lived an entire lifetime at this moment with you.

Just before darkness comes and light fades, those rare moments where magic is made.

Turn moments of weakness into unwavering strength, when you fight for yourself you’ll have you to thank.

Speak life into others be the peace people seek, remind them who they are in moments felt weak.

It wasn’t written in the skies for us but for a moment I was a shooting star in the cosmos of your love.

Every letter of every poem is one more moment with you.

I need to moment to breathe as from the chaos I dream to leave I know I’ll find my feet you won’t find me admitting defeat the calmness I miss I’d give anything for a moment of temporary bliss.
