“The essence of warriorship, or the essence of human bravery, is refusing to give up on anyone or anything.”
Chogyam Trungpa, Shambhala: The Sacred Path of the Warrior

Chögyam Trungpa
“...We leave our homeland, our property and our friends. We give up the familiar ground that supports our ego, admit the helplessness of ego to control its world and secure itself. We give up our clingings to superiority and self-preservation...It means giving up searching for a home, becoming a refugee, a lonely person who must depend on himself...Fundamentally, no one can help us. If we seek to relieve our loneliness, we will be distracted from the path. Instead, we must make a relationship with loneliness until it becomes aloneness.”
Chogyam Trungpa, The Myth of Freedom and the Way of Meditation

“It's easier to put on a pair of shoes than to wrap the earth in leather.”
Chogyam Trungpa

Chögyam Trungpa
“When you relate to thoughts obsessively, you are actually feeding them because thoughts need your attention to survive. Once you begin to pay attention to them and categorize them, then they become very powerful. You are feeding them energy because you are not seeing them as simple phenomena. If one tries to quiet them down, that is another way of feeding them.”
