The most important thing in life is human affection.
Without it one cannot achieve genuine happiness.
And if we want a happier life, a happier family, happier neighbours
or a happier nation, the key is inner quality.
Even if the five billion human beings that inhabit the earth become
millionaires, without inner development there cannot be peace
or any lasting happiness.

-Dalai Lama



Compassion is the awareness of a deep bond between yourself
and all creatures.

-Eckhart Tolle



I think one has to understand, not as a theory, not as a speculative, entertaining concept,
but rather as an actual fact - that we are the world and the world is us.
The world is each one of us; to feel that, to be really committed to it and to nothing else,
brings about a feeling of great responsibility and an action that must not be fragmentary,
but whole.

-Krishnamurti



Our addiction to always being "right" is a great block to the truth.
It keeps us from the kind of openness that comes from confidence in our
natural wisdom.

-Stephen Levine



Enlightenment is freedom, the thought of enlightenment is prison.
The truth exists in the moment. If we´re anywhere else, seeking something
outside of the moment, we´re in prison.

-Stephen Levine



All that we are is the result of what we have thought:
it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up of our thoughts.
If a man thinks or acts with a selfless thought, joy follows
him, as a shadow that never leaves him.

-Buddha



Your own self is your ultimate teacher.
The outer teacher is merely a milestone.
It is only your inner teacher, that will walk with you to the goal,
for he is the goal.

-Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj



Buddha nature, is like the sun which is always shining,
always present, though often obscured. We are blocked from our natural light
by the clouds of thought and longing and fear; the overcast of the conditioned mind;
the hurricane of  “I am.“

-Stephen Levine



Love is the recognition of oneness in the world of duality.   

- Eckhart Tolle 



Being one with life is being one with Now. You then realize that you don´t live your life,
but life lives you. Life is the dancer, and you are the dance.    

 –Eckhart Tolle



Some huge work goes on growing. How could one person´s words matter?
Where you walk heads pop from the ground. What is one seed head compared to you?
On my death day I´ll know the answer. I have cleared this house,
so that your work can, when it comes, fill every room.
I slide like an empty boat pulled over the water.      

-Rumi



To be alignment with what is means to be in relationship of inner non-resistance with what happens.
It means not to label it mentally as good or bad, but to let it be. 
 
– Eckhart Tolle



When the basis for your actions is inner alignment with the present moment,
your actions become empowered by the intelligence of Life itself.   
 
–Eckhart Tolle



You cannot change the course of events, but you can change your
attitude, and what really matters is the attitude and not the mere event.

- Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj



Truth and illusion have no connection. This will remain forever true, however much you seek to connect them.
But illusions are always connected, as is truth. Each is united, a complete thought system,  
but totally disconnected to each other.
And to perceive this is to recognize where separation is,
and where it must be healed.

-ACIM



The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy.
What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.

–Richard Bach



The balanced energy of patience radiates a friendly and productive attitude
from our hearts into every aspect of our existence.

-Tarthang Tulku



To live in the world without becoming aware of the meaning of the world
is like wandering about in a great library without touching the books.



Know that however difficult experiences may be,
they are part of the truth you seek.

- Tarthang Tulku



Once we truly understand that our waking experience is dreamlike,
we no longer have to treat life as a serious problem.

- Tarthang Tulku



The Word is the Magic that Humans possess and misuse of the Word is Black Magic...
Be Impeccable with Your Word.

-Don Miguel Ruiz



Each day should be devoted to miracles. The purpose of time is to enable you to learn how to use time constructively.
It is thus a teaching device and a means to an end.
Time will cease when it is no longer useful in facilitating learning.
