“What does it mean, in the light of karma, to wish for people to be happy? It means you wish that they would create good karma, that they would be skillful.” —Thanissaro Bhikkhu
“Meditation practice isn’t about trying to throw ourselves away and become something better. It’s about befriending who we are already. The ground of practice is whoever we are right now. That’s what we come to know with tremendous curiosity and interest.” — Pema Chödrön
