"When we are mindful, deeply in touch with the present moment, our
understanding of what is going on deepens, and we begin to be filled with
acceptance, joy, peace and love."
"Imagine a culture in which everything is geared toward helping all
individuals become the best human beings they can be; in which individuals are
driven to devoting their lives to becoming enlightened by the natural flood of
compassion for others that arises from their wisdom."
"It isn't the things that happen to us in our lives that
cause us to suffer, it's how we relate to the things that happen to us that
causes us to suffer."
