Connect!

Project positive feelings on others - feelings of warm care and goodwill - and not only will others benefit, but we will benefit as well. This is because we are not truly separated or autonomous from each other. Projecting love to others is the same as cultivating love for oneself. Project boundless love, and you become boundless love.

When we bring a loving presence and a spirit of non-violence to all that is, we discover that there is a place in us where fear cannot penetrate. This is the result of letting go of a smaller sense of separated self and realizing our unity with all there is, has been and will be.

Experiencing this essential connection is to be a Buddha, to be awake.
Whenever we forget about this unity and hold on to the illusion of a separated self, we are planting the seeds of suffering for all beings.
