― Shunryu Suzuki, Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind: Informal Talks on Zen Meditation and Practice

“When we shift our focus away from impressing others or asserting ourselves through words and move away from the ego-driven impulse toward self-glorification, we can embrace the wisdom of non-attachment and honor an authentic sense of balance in our interactions with others. ("Esprit d鈥檈scalier" - " Staircase Wit")”
― Erik Pevernagie

“As an empath, it鈥檚 vital that you learn how to hold space for your emotions, even the most painful ones. By anchoring yourself in your breath, you can learn how to witness the emotional energy of others within you, without attaching yourself to these sensations.”
― Mateo Sol, Awakened Empath: The Ultimate Guide to Emotional, Psychological and Spiritual Healing

“Things sometimes go our way and sometimes they don鈥檛. All we can do is apply ourselves to our profession, giving our very best effort but emotionally letting go of the outcome. Why? Because if we obsess about an outcome, we cannot possibly honour the present moment.”
― Christopher Dines, Mindfulness Burnout Prevention: An 8-Week Course for Professionals

“It is impossible to control outcomes or results, although most of us have been programmed from a very young age to believe otherwise. The idea that we can perform actual 鈥榤agic鈥� causes tremendous dysfunction, unnecessary suffering and prevents the development of emotional resilience.”
― Christopher Dines, Mindfulness Burnout Prevention: An 8-Week Course for Professionals

“Mindfulness & Meditation help focus on the moment while at the same time knowing we cannot capture that moment, we are in a flow of moments we let flow. We can watch moments in detail without being attached to them. Non-attachment to past & future stems from this practice. Worry about past or future is wasted energy, however we can observe the past & learn from it without agonising over it & trust ourselves to handle the future better. We can celebrate the opportunity to grow as we gain understanding from observation & experience. We can watch ourselves & avoid being caught up in over-reactions. "I am loved, right now, in this moment, I love, and am part of love itself. I am aware of myself at every level - the mental slowing gracefully to sense the spiritual within & all around, and the physical being still, or moving. I tune in to the flow of life in my body & the flow of life everywhere. I circulate love with each breath - from without to within & from within to all around.”
― Jay Woodman

“Every day as I wave to my children when I drop them off at school, or let one of them have a new experience鈥攍ike crossing the street without holding my hand鈥擨 experience the struggle between love and non-attachment. It is hard to bear鈥攖he extreme love of one鈥檚 child and the thought that ultimately the child belongs to the world. There is this horrible design flaw鈥攃hildren are supposed to grow up and away from you; and one of you will die first.”
― Sarah Ruhl, The Oldest Boy: A Play in Three Ceremonies

“In the Chinese metaphysical tradition this is termed wu-hsin or 'idealness', signifying a state of consciousness in which one simply accepts experiences as they come without interfering with them on the one hand or identifying oneself with them on the other. One does not judge them, form theories about them, try to control them, or attempt to change their nature in any way; one lets them be free to be just exactly what they are. 'The perfect man', said Chuang-tzu, 'employs his mind as a mirror; it grasps nothing, it refuses nothing, it receives but does not keep.”
― Alan W. Watts, The Supreme Identity

“There is no gap between the ignorant and the wise. A foolish person is a wise person; a wise person is a foolish person.”
― Shunryu Suzuki

“Habit has two parts, Toni [Packer] says. There is the habit itself (finger biting, smoking, drinking, whatever), and there is the observer who wants to stop, who is also a habit. And there is the conflict, the battle between the desire to indulge, which is an escape from what is, and the desire to stop, which is also a movement away from what is.”
― Joan Tollifson, Bare-Bones Meditation: Waking Up from the Story of My Life

“What any desire really aims at, is a state of non-desire. This non-desire is a state in which we demand absolutely nothing. Thus it is a state of extreme abundance, of fullness. This fullness is revealed as being bliss and peace. You now know that you are really seeking nothing else but fullness and absolute peace.”
― Jean Klein, Be Who You Are

“Giving in to sleep is a great opportunity to practice letting go of life.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“No one can control their results. We can, however, control our attitude. When we practise compassion, it is most effective when it is unconditional and free from seeking an outcome 鈥� compassion is a matter of choice rather than a self-seeking action. And so, if we assist another human being from a place of presence and compassion, we are not looking to find our happiness off the back of others鈥� suffering. Nor are we trying to control them. Compassion is a conscious choice rather than an emotional knee-jerk reaction.”
― Christopher Dines, The Kindness Habit: Transforming our Relationship to Addictive Behaviours

“Even most of those whose wealth was not inherited or won often lose sleep over losing their wealth.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“Sometimes we are lucky to lose something or someone.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“Desire is not what causes suffering.
It is the attachment to desire that steals our joy. Desire what your heart desires, and then get out of your own way. Detach from your desire and continue to do what makes you happy. When it resurfaces in your thoughts, feel the joy of already having it, and also the peace of knowing that what is meant for you
will never pass you bye.”
― Sama Akbar

“Excessive thinking and more so attachment to thoughts dominate our daily activities. But why? The mind thinks. But you must not. It is a choice. Remember. You are not your thoughts.”
― Steve Leasock

“Togetherness as one is real. It is perhaps the only thing that is real. I am referring to oneness. This is our essential state of being. Not only humans but all animals, plants, and things at the conscious level of being.”
― Steve Leasock, Love Will Show You the Way: Choosing the Path of Least Resistance

“We are all entitled to our opinions. We should not, however, require others to agree to them.”
― Sama Akbar

“You are not your thoughts. Therefore, it is not necessary to attach yourself to them. Use the following mantra daily. 鈥業 am not my thoughts.鈥� Practice allowing the mind to think. While you remain unattached from 99% of the brain鈥檚 activities. What about the remaining 1 percent? This is the focus point of your conscious awareness.”
― Steve Leasock

“Practice letting each thought flow without attaching anything to it. No labels, no judgement, and no anxiety.”
― Steve Leasock

“The transition back to a state of focusing on presence and conscious living first seems long, even unreachable. However, it is not difficult. On the contrary, it is quite simple. Just be. No attachment nor thought.”
― Steve Leasock, Love Will Show You the Way: Choosing the Path of Least Resistance

“Loving and Living can be indescribably wonderful experiences without human based demands and expectancy.”
― Steve Leasock, Love Will Show You the Way: Choosing the Path of Least Resistance

“You are sharing the seeds of life with the universe. Please plant these seeds consciously, wisely, and with love. Everything reflects back to you and the seeds that have been planted.”
― Steve Leasock, Love Will Show You the Way: Choosing the Path of Least Resistance

“The content structures of our existence, whether of mind or body, are helpful in our daily activities. Nevertheless, these can also be very manipulative and restrictive concerning conscious awakening. Thoughts and emotions can be excellent students of life. However, they cannot and should never be the teacher or master of this mystery.”
― Steve Leasock, Love Will Show You the Way: Choosing the Path of Least Resistance

“Darwin and Freud... in their quite different ways are persuading us to become good losers; to be able, if need be, to dispel our attachment to people and ideas, and ultimately to ourselves.”
― Adam Phillips, Darwin's Worms: On Life Stories and Death Stories

“Disciple: Master, why do I feel so burdened even when I carry so little?

Master: Because even little can feel heavy when you cling to it.

Disciple: Then, should I let go of everything?

Master: To carry nothing is to have room for everything.

Disciple: But how can I hold onto nothing?

Master: By not holding at all. What is yours will remain, what is not will flow away.

Disciple: And what will remain, Master?

Master: Only what fits into the space of an open hand.”
