Being satisfied with what we already have is the key to being alive in a full, unrestricted and inspiring way.  Wake up, become more alert and curious about yourself.  Being who we are rather than trying to change and improve ourselves is all right, just be.  Any wisdom that exists, exists in what we already have.

If you want liberation and freedom, transcend all identity of wealth or poverty, good or bad, all duality makes no difference.  True freedom comes from understanding the oneness and connectedness of all things.  Such a realization leads to a perception that all things are truly equal.

The truth is always right there before you and what you need is always right in front of you.  All you need to do is open your mind and heart and look.  You can do this by being present in this moment, accepting that you don’t know, then the truth will become clear.

Fellowship among us should be based on concerns that are universal.  Lasting fellowship should not be the private interests of individuals, but rather the goals of humanity.  Fellowship in the open succeeds, if unity like this prevails even difficult and dangerous tasks can be accomplished.

Quote: Look at the whole picture.
