Words of Wisdom for Aug. 1, 2019:
Peaceful Stillness
by Lama Thubten Yeshe

"A great deal of our suffering arises because we are conflicted about reputation. Instead of being concerned about the reality of what we are, we’re concerned about what other people think of us. We’re too outward looking. That’s incredible. As far as Buddhism is concerned, that’s a sick mind; totally, clinically sick."

— Lama Thubten Yeshe
