Text Quotes
Peace isn’t an experience free of challenges, free of rough and smooth, it’s an experience that’s expansive enough to include all that arises without feeling threatened (Pema Chodron Quotes)
We can let the circumstances of our lives harden us so that we become increasingly resentful and afraid, or we can let them soften us and make us kinder and more open to what scares us. We always have this choice (Pema Chodron Quotes)
The most important aspect of being on a spiritual path may be to just keep moving (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Constantly apply cheerfulness, if for no other reason than because you are on this spiritual path. Have a sense of gratitude to everything, even difficult emotions, because of their potential to wake you up (Pema Chodron Quotes)
If you’re aggressive in your dealings, that’s how you’ll be regarded in the world. You might smile and give generously, but if you frequently explode in anger, people never feel comfortable in your presence and you’ll never have peace of mind (Pema Chodron Quotes)
The only way to ease our pain is to experience it fully. Learn to stay with uneasiness, learn to stay with the tightening, so that the habitual chain reaction doesn’t continue to rule your life (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Are you experiencing restlessness? Stay! Are fear and loathing out of control? Stay! Aching knees and throbbing back? Stay! What’s for lunch? Stay! I can’t stand this another minute! Stay! (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Blaming is a way to protect your heart, trying to protect what is soft and open and tender in yourself (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Nothing ever goes away until it has taught us what we need to know. Even if we run a hundred miles an hour to the other side of the continent, we find the very same problem awaiting us when we arrive (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Finding the courage to go to the places that scare us cannot happen without compassionate inquiry into the workings of ego... Openness doesn’t come from resisting our fears but from getting to know them well (Pema Chodron Quotes)
In meditation, you learn how to get out of your own way long enough for there to be room for your wisdom to manifest (Pema Chodron Quotes)
There comes a time when the bubble of ego is popped and you can’t get the ground back for an extended period of time. Those times, when you absolutely cannot get it back together, are the most rich and powerful times in our lives (Pema Chodron Quotes)
The point is that our true nature is not some ideal that we have to live up to. It’s who we are right now, and that’s what we can make friends with and celebrate (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Most spiritual experiences begin with suffering. They begin with groundlessness. They begin when the rug has been pulled out from under us (Pema Chodron Quotes)
If it’s painful, you become willing not just to endure it but also to let it awaken your heart and soften you. You learn to embrace it (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Mindfulness is loving all the details of our lives, and awareness is the natural thing that happens: life begins to open up, and you realize that you’re always standing at the center of the world (Pema Chodron Quotes)
We don’t experience the world fully unless we are willing to give everything away (Pema Chodron Quotes)
This very moment is the perfect teacher, and, lucky for us, it’s with us wherever we go (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Rejoicing in the good fortune of others is a practice that can help us when we feel emotionally shut down and unable to connect with others. Rejoicing generates good will (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Our neurosis and our wisdom are made out of the same material. If you throw out your neurosis, you also throw out your wisdom (Pema Chodron Quotes)
It is a commitment to respect whatever life brings that we develop wholehearted determination to use discomfort as an opportunity for awakening, rather than trying to make it disappear (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Don’t get caught up in hopes of what you’ll achieve and how good your situation will be some day in the future. What you do right now is what matters (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Share the wealth. Be generous with your joy. Give away what you most want. Be generous with your insights and delights (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Clarity and decisiveness come from the willingness to slow down, to listen to and look at what’s happening (Pema Chodron Quotes)
If you work with your mind, instead of trying to change everything on the outside... that’s how your temper will cool down (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Whatever happens in your life, joyful or painful, do not be swept away by reactivity. Be patient with yourself and don’t lose your sense of perspective (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Everything that human beings feel, we feel. We can become extremely wise and sensitive to all of humanity and the whole universe simply by knowing ourselves, just as we are (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Openness doesn’t come from resisting our fears but rather from getting to know them well (Pema Chodron Quotes)
Life is glorious, but life is also wretched. It is both... Life is glorious, but life is also wretched. It is both (Pema Chodron Quotes)
We give it up and just look directly with compassion and humor at who we are. Then loneliness is no threat and heartache, no punishment (Pema Chodron Quotes)
