Jane Roberts
“Live every day to its fullest, and do not be a slave to your hopes for the future. If you do not learn to enjoy today you will not enjoy the future no matter what it may bring.”
― Jane Roberts, The Early Sessions: Book 8 of The Seth Material

Robert  Wright
“Buddha believed that the less you judge things—including the contents of your mind—the more clearly you’ll see them, and the less deluded you’ll be.”
― Robert Wright, Why Buddhism is True: The Science and Philosophy of Meditation and Enlightenment

Robert  Wright
“So if you ask the question “What kinds of perceptions and thoughts and feelings guide us through life each day?” the answer, at the most basic level, isn’t “The kinds of thoughts and feelings and perceptions that give us an accurate picture of reality.” No, at the most basic level the answer is “The kinds of thoughts and feelings and perceptions that helped our ancestors get genes into the next generation.” Whether those thoughts and feelings and perceptions give us a true view of reality is, strictly speaking, beside the point. As a result, they sometimes don’t. Our brains are designed to, among other things, delude us.”
― Robert Wright , Why Buddhism Is True: The Science and Philosophy of Meditation and Enlightenment

“A Tibetan aphorism states, “Let your mind be a gracious host in the midst of unruly guests.”
― B. Alan Wallace, The Attention Revolution: Unlocking the Power of the Focused Mind

Robert  Wright
“natural selection didn’t design your mind to see the world clearly; it designed your mind to have perceptions and beliefs that would help take care of your genes.”
― Robert Wright, Why Buddhism is True: The Science and Philosophy of Meditation and Enlightenment
