| ||||||
"A psychotic drowns in the very same stuff a mystic swims in." - Pema Chodron "We work on ourselves in order to help others, but also we help others in order to work on ourselves." - Pema Chodron "When we start out on a spiritual path we often have ideals we think we're supposed to live up to." -Pema Chodron "If we learn to open our hearts, anyone, including the people who drive us crazy, can be our teacher." - Pema Chodron "There's a reason you can learn from everything: you have basic wisdom, basic intelligence, and basic goodness." - Pema Chodron "Only to the extent that we expose ourselves over and over to annihilation can that which is indestructible in us be found." - Pema Chodron "We cannot be present and run our story-line at the same time." - Pema Chodron "Gloriousness and wretchedness need each other. One inspires us, the other softens us." - Pema Chodron "Feeling irritated, restless, afraid, and hopeless is a reminder to listen more carefully." - Pema Chodron "Compassion starts with making friends with ourselves -- particularly with our poisons." - Pema Chodron "If you follow your heart, you're going to find that it is often extremely inconvenient." - Pema Chodron "When things are properly understood, one's whole life is like a ritual or ceremony." - Pema Chodron "The truth you believe and cling to makes you unavailable to hear anything new." - Pema Chodron "Begin to develop curiosity, not caring whether the object of inquisitiveness is bitter or sweet." - Pema Chodron "It's also helpful to realize that this very body that we have, that's sitting right here right now... with its aches and it pleasures... is exactly what we need to be fully human, fully awake, fully alive." - Pema Chodron "People get into a heavy-duty sin and guilt trip, feeling that if things are going wrong, that means that they did something bad and they are being punished. That's not the idea at all. The idea of karma is that you continually get the teachings that you need to open your heart. To the degree that you didn't understand in the past how to stop protecting your soft spot, how to stop armoring your heart, you're given this gift of teachings in the form of your life, to give you everything you need to open further." - Pema Chodron "A further sign of health is that we don't become undone by fear and trembling, but we take it as a message that it's time to stop struggling and look directly at what's threatening us." - Pema Chodron "When you begin to touch your heart or let your heart be touched, you begin to discover that it's bottomless, that it doesn't have any resolution, that this heart is huge, vast, and limitless. You begin to discover how much warmth and gentleness is there, as well as how much space." - Pema Chodron BECK "Black Tambourine" |
