See the world as your self. Love the world as your self. This is a simple reframe—like taking one small step to the side. You only have to love what you already love.

to know the world is the chiefest delight in life.

Anyhow, the older I get, the less impressed I become with originality. These days, I’m far more moved by authenticity. Attempts at originality can often feel forced and precious, but authenticity has quiet resonance that never fails to stir me.

If you don’t find your work in the world and throw yourself wholeheartedly into it, you will inevitably make your self your work.

The whole world is inside each person, each being, each object. To know any part of the world deeply, intimately, is to know the whole.

Actions taken in support of dharma change the self. The act of commitment itself calls forth an unseen dharma power.
