- A certain kind of flowering takes place in letting go
- Conditions in life help us with our interior journey
- Real change takes place when we stop refusing the lesson
- Currently our actions are prompted by the fear of suffering
- Using pain as a teachable moment
- Disturbance is part of life
- Reaching the moment where we see nothing we have done has put us 'in control'
- We can't run to something without running from something
- Trying to run away from one's own consciousness is a futile activity
- No rebirth without a death.
