There Is One Thing In Life That

Life Always Gives Us Exactly The Teacher We Need At Every Moment. This Includes Every Mosquito, Every Misfortune, Every Red Light, Every Traffic Jam, Every Obnoxious Supervisor (or Employee), Every Illness, Every Loss, Every Moment Of Joy Or Depression, Every Addiction, Every Piece Of Garbage, Every Breath. Every Moment Is The Guru.

There Is One Thing In Life That You Can Always Rely On: Life Being As It Is.

We Have Self-centered Minds Which Get Us Into Plenty Of Trouble. If We Do Not Come To Understand The Error In The Way We Think, Our Self-awareness, Which Is Our Greatest Blessing, Is Also Our Downfall.

We 'rid Ourselves Of Conceptual Thought' When, By Persistent Observation, We Recognize The Unreality Of Our Self-centered Thoughts. Then We Can Remain Dispassionate And Fundamentally Unaffected By Them. That Does Not Mean To Be A Cold Person. Rather, It Means Not To Be Caught And Dragged Around By Circumstances.

You Cannot Avoid Paradise. You Can Only Avoid Seeking It.
