When you meet someone, keep your heart and mind open and without any agenda to make them right or wrong.  Could you see, hear, feel people just as they really are?  This is a powerful practice; only true communication can happen in this open space.

We need to let ourselves go, enter freely into the process of nature and become absorbed in it.  This way we will have success, the sequence of things will be as evident as the coming of the sun and the moon and everything will be as it should be.

Living life is easy if you don’t cling to good and bad, let go of preferences and everything will become clear.  We cannot remain indifferent to the suffering of the world; we all need to increase our service along with our understanding using our two natural attributes: awareness and action.

To resolve any conflict, sit down with your adversary face to face.  Generally, dispute arises from not having the flexibility in considering the other’s opinion.  Whether you win or lose is not enjoyable, it’s better to solve the dispute before it goes too far, usually by meeting your opponent halfway.

Quote: Thanks for everything, I have no complaints whatsoever.
