The Feminine
“The feminine is more powerful than the masculine, the soft is more powerful than the hard, the water is more powerful than the rock.”
The Effort
“The whole effort of a Jesus or a Buddha or a Bodhidharma is nothing but how to undo that which society has done to you.”
Become a Mirror
“If you can become a mirror you have become a meditator. Meditation is nothing but skill in mirroring. And now, no word moves inside you so there is no distraction.”
The Modern Mind
“The modern mind has lost all capacity to wonder. It has lost all capacity to look into the mysterious, into the miraculous – because of knowledge, because it thinks it knows.”
My Mechanism
“You and your brain are two things. The brain is your machinery just like everything else is your machinery. This hand is my mechanism; I use it. My brain is my mechanism; I use it.”
