There is a web of life into which we are born, from which we can never fall.

Those who are awake live in a state of constant amazement.

The knowledge of the past stays with us. To let go is to release the images and conditions, the grudges and fears, the clingings and disappointments of the past that bind our spirit.

The near enemy of love is attachment. Attachment masquerades as love. It says, 'I will love this person because I need them.' Or, 'I’ll love you if you’ll love me back. I’ll love you, but only if you will be the way I want.' This isn’t love at all - it is attachment - and attachment is rigid, it is very different from love.

Our sorrows and wounds are healed only when we touch them with compassion.

The air we breathe, the wind that blows around us, the earth that we walk upon, the lives of others around us, the most intimate things of our lives, are the place of our sleep or of our awakening.

In the end, just three things matter: How well we have lived, How well we have loved, How well we have learned to let go.

Breathe softly into it, accepting all that is present with a healing kindness.

Breathe quietly and let it be. Let your body relax and your heart soften. Open to whatever you experience without fighting.

Breathe gently. Let go of your thoughts, past and future, memories and plans.
