My religion is to live and die without regret.

When you run after your thoughts, you are like a dog chasing a stick. Every time a stick is thrown, you run after it. Instead, be like a lion who, rather than chasing after the stick, turns to face the thrower.

The nature of mind is clearer than the sky, yet we keep looking elsewhere.

The six realms of existence are like a dream, why build a prison for yourself?

When I run from suffering, it follows me. When I face suffering with equanimity, it runs from me.

The practitioner and practice are like fire and wood. The more you practice, the more you burn.

The essence of mind is empty like space; yet it contains all things, like a mirror.

If you want to know your past life, look into your present condition; if you want to know your future life, look into your present actions.

The dharma is not in the books. If you want to find the dharma, look in your mind.

In the gap between thoughts, nonconceptual wisdom shines continuously.

The snow lion stays in the mountains, and the snow lion's ways are the snow lion's ways.

The signs of practice are not in extraordinary experiences but in extraordinary awareness of ordinary experiences.

The only things that are truly mine are my actions and their results.

In my youth I studied, in my prime I practiced, now all my doubts are cleared.

Faith is the firm foundation, diligence the supporting pillar, and wisdom the roof of the house of practice.

The highest mantra is to be without deception. The highest medicine is to have few desires. The highest meditation is not to be attached.

The mind that sees its own nature becomes free from all extremes.

The experience of emptiness engenders compassion.

The lamp of wisdom burns constantly, illuminating the nature of mind.

The teaching is simple: act with kindness and compassion. If you cannot do this, at least try not to harm others.
