“If you have the choice between enlightenment and a million dollars, take the million dollars! Because if you get the million dollars, there will be somebody there to enjoy the million dollars… but if you get enlightenment there’s no one there to enjoy the enlightenment…”

 Lift the veil that obscures the heart, and there you will find what you are looking for.



Chogyam Trungpa, The Myth of Freedom and the Way of Meditation

 When you relate to thoughts obsessively, you are actually feeding them because thoughts need your attention to survive. Once you begin to pay attention to them and categorize them, then they become very powerful. You are feeding them energy because you are not seeing them as simple phenomena. If one tries to quiet them down, that is another way of feeding them.

Bodhidharma

 As long as you look for a Buddha somewhere else, you'll never see that your own mind is the Buddha.



Dr Alex George

 It may sound a little silly, but I suggest giving your imposter syndrome a name. This is great for times when it pops up, so you can differentiate it from [...] your healthy thoughts. The sillier the name, the better, because it'll lessen is power over you. Eventually, you'll be ready to say, 'Oh, here's Mr Tiddlywinks again, trying to tell me I'm no good...'



Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 Kind hearts are the gardens, Kind thoughts are the roots, Kind words are the flowers, Kind deeds are the fruits, Take care of your garden And keep out the weeds, Fill it with sunshine, Kind words, and Kind deeds.
