Blaming others is like holding a hot coal. It will burn you over and over again.

Blaming yourself leads you to shame yourself. Neither serves any good purpose. All they do is erode your self-confidence and suck the joy of life out of you.

Emotions are like the tide. When they’re high, use them to inspire. When they’re low, use them to reflect.

Your inner wisdom arises when you’re not in your head.

Beauty harmonizes the illusions of the outer world with the reality of the inner world.

Peace is an inherent quality of the soul, along with love and joy. The enemies of peace, love, and joy are grief, anger, anxiety, sadness, and fear. These enemies arise when the mind loses touch with the heart.

The soul always illuminates the spiritual path. It’s only the mind that gets lost in the darkness.

Look within if you’re having trouble seeing your outer beauty. Then hold up a mirror, and see what natural beauty looks like.

Your soul is pure creative energy. When you act on that creativity, everything changes for the better.

Playfulness is an expression of our soul. So are child-likeness and joyfulness.
