He is also a brilliant mediation teacher and with his deep insight into an age-old Buddhist tradition, he guides Westerners on the path to happiness and enlightenment through meditation.
1) Be careful, stay informed. Mind your step. Note: it pays off.
2) Awaken your mind, open your heart and energize yourself. Learn to see clearly and love generously.
3) Find a way to live your own spiritual practice. Develop an ongoing spiritual life, not just a few spiritual experiences.
4) Don’t see the light of others. Make use of your own innate natural resources for a change. My spirit.
5) Freedom is a process, not just an idea or ideal outcome. Progress is more important than perfection.
7) Illuminate while you illuminate. Cultivate joy. Don’t take yourself too seriously or it won’t be as fun.
8) Don’t hold on to anything. Recognize that everything is impermanent and like a dream, a movie, a sitcom. Remember the daily mantra: This Too Shall Pass.
9) Not too tight and not too loose. Stay tuned to the big picture.
10) Be careful. NB. Keep your eyes open. Be alert and intelligent in your experiments with reality.
11) Be here while you get there, every step of the way.
12) Don’t rely solely on words and concepts. Just say maybe.
13) Don’t be misled by ideas and opinions, both those of others and your own. You just can’t believe what you’re thinking.
Life is precious; treat with prayer.
Be good and do good.
It’s now or never, as always.
Meditate as quickly as you can.
