Oprah and Thich

Thich Nhat Hanh: I know that we do not know enough. We have to continue to learn. We have to be open. And we have to be ready to release our knowledge in order to come to a higher understanding of reality. When you climb a ladder and arrive on the sixth step and you think that is the highest, then you cannot come to the seventh. So the technique is to abandon the sixth in order for the seventh step to be possible. And this is our practice, to release our views. The practice of nonattachment to views is at the heart of the Buddhist practice of meditation. People suffer because they are caught in their views. As soon as we release those views, we are free and we don't suffer anymore.

only one way

Wash out your brain waves, empty your mind
Flush out the bullshit, see what you find.

thought tigers

Once upon a time there was an artist who lived in a cave.
One day he painted a ferocious tiger on the wall.
Now every time he sees it he feels afraid.
Our thoughts are like painted tigers in our mind.

the noble quest

The noble quest is about being rather than doing.
Being a cool dude and comfortable in your skin.
Being at peace in the present moment.
