“See the stars at night. They seem so small to your eyes, but their light shines for millions of miles. Be like those stars— small in your own eyes, yet radiant to all.”
Daniel Levin, The Zen Book

“Watch a mother with her baby— and care for the world with the totality of that love. Watch the river . . . the way it flows and effortlessly passes over the little impediments that get in its way. That is the way to walk through life, unencumbered by the small challenges that happen every day.”
Daniel Levin, The Zen Book

Timber  Hawkeye
“All the happiness in the world stems from wanting others to be happy, and all the suffering in the world stems from wanting the self to be happy. —Shantideva”
Timber Hawkeye, Buddhist Boot Camp

“Most people are like this. Something they have made in their minds over and over again strongly prevents them from having a complete life. They are desperately trying to get out of a suffering realm that they have made themselves by becoming blindly attached to sensations. But it doesn’t work that easily. The simple reason for their difficulties is that they don’t understand impermanence. This is the path of human beings’ suffering. Everything in this world happens by natural process. You make everything, so you get everything, which means you get some kind of suffering. “I don’t like getting old.” “Oh, my relationship with him ended. I feel so miserable.” “I hate being sick like this.” “I don’t like him.” “I can’t believe my grandmother died.” We all suffer. But if you correctly attain this insight into impermanence, then you can take away these Eight Sufferings. If you don’t understand that all things are impermanent, however, then you become easily attached to things that must eventually pass. As a result, you cannot take away your suffering, and you only continue to make more suffering for yourself and for this whole world.”
Zen Master Seung Sahn, The Compass of Zen

“If you only think about yourself and your own difficulties, while ignoring the situation of those around you, how could this be called the correct path? Once we are born into this world, it’s as if we are all riding in the same boat. Even if you only have a little to eat, share it with those who have less. If everyone practices like this, there will be more than enough for everyone.”
Seon Master Daehaeng, My Heart is a Golden Buddha
