When we hold on to our opinions with aggression, no matter how valid our cause, we are simply adding more aggression to the planet, and violence and pain increase. Cultivating nonaggression is cultivating peace. The way to stop the war is to stop hating the enemy.

All state AGs and governors need to read this. It’s time for state governments to use their power to protect their people. Arrest and convict ICE agents who cross the line.

Building a fire. Building warmth. Being with the ones we love. That is resistance.

There is nothing amazing about being highly educated; there is nothing amazing about being rich. Only when the individual has a warm heart do these attributes become worthwhile.

Recognizing our shared humanity and our biological nature as beings whose happiness is dependent on others, we learn to open our hearts, and in so doing we gain a sense of purpose and a sense of connection with those around us.

To the elites their money is their power.

Use that very power to force them to pay attention that we the people are the root of that power.

All things move and change and are impermanent like clouds, They may be likened to a flash of lightning. They are like a dewdrop on a blade of grass, and deceptive like an empty fist; They have no essence and no self, and lack intrinsic existence in every way.

If we ourselves remain angry and then sing world peace, it has little meaning. First, our individual self must learn peace. This we can practice. Then we can teach the rest of the world.

Conquer anger with non-anger. Conquer badness with goodness. Conquer meanness with generosity. Conquer dishonesty with truth.

Your up and down emotions are like clouds in the sky; beyond them, the real, basic human nature is clear and pure.

This little one rests.

May she be free from harm and suffering. May she be healthy and know joy. May she be at peace.

That nothing is static or fixed, that all is fleeting and impermanent, is the first mark of existence.
