  1. Peace begins when you stop trying to control what was never yours to control. Let what comes, come. Let what stays, stay. Let what leaves, leave. You can love deeply without clinging, and care without losing yourself. Sometimes, the greatest freedom is learning to let life unfold without fighting every change.

  4. Few are the people
    who reach the Far Shore.
    These others
    simply scurry along
    this shore.

    But those who practice Dhamma
    in line with the well-taught Dhamma,
    will cross over the realm of Death
    so hard to transcend.
    ~Dhammapada 85-6

  5. "By the #Dharma is meant the heart, for there is no Dharma apart from the heart.

  7. Suffering the mind
    Nirvana waits patiently
    Anxious thoughts push on

    Frenetic seeking ensues
    Suffering intensifies

  8. If we don't critically analyze things, we become lost in a world of make-believe that has very little correspondence with reality. Shantideva compares self-obsession and its attendant conflicting emotions to a demon:

    "All the harm with which this world is rife, All fear and suffering that there is, Clinging to the "I" has caused it!
    What am I to do with this great demon?!?"

    The Buddhist definition of a
    demon is something harmful.

  19. Oren Jay Sofer has updated his recommended reading lists!

    #Meditation #Mindfulness #Buddhism #NVC : orenjaysofer.com/reading-list

    #Qigong #Movement #Trauma : orenjaysofer.com/qigong

    Notably, a few excellent recommendations are missing from the current list, namely:

    - Hardwiring Happiness by Rick Hanson
    - Spinning Threads of Radical Aliveness (thefearlessheart.org/store/spi) by Miki Kashtan
    - Reweaving Our Human Fabric (thefearlessheart.org/store/rew) by Miki Kashtan

    Also notably, the default links are mostly to #Amazon, so for anyone who plans on buying anything from the list, you may want to search for the #book or #books from an #ethical #bookseller yourself.
