Sharing your heart is a simple practice that can be used any time.  When you encounter pain in your life, breathe into your heart and recognize that others also feel this.  Whether it is a pleasant feeling or a burden, think of others.  This training will benefit us tremendously, and everyone else as well.

On certain days we seem to come to our limits, our tolerance for a situation ends.  These are the points when our entire lives pivot and turns towards a new phase and, if it is right, we take advantage of it.  This is why you must engage life and maintain your pace.

Chase after money and security and your heart will never unclench.  If you seek people’s approval, you become bound to them.  Share with others these teachings and you will be immersed in the blessings that come from that.  Do your work and step back, let it be, this is the path to serenity.

The force of inner truth depends chiefly on inner stability and preparedness.  From this state the mind springs the correct attitude towards the outer world.  Retain your inner independence, this way you will have inner peace and the power to deal with the outside world.

Quote: Maintaining order rather than correcting disorder is the ultimate principle of wisdom.
