Patience is the direct antithesis of anger. - Allan Lokos, Pocket Peace: Effective Practices for Enlightened Living

"Don't believe everything you think. Thoughts are just that - thoughts."

"We train the mind so that we can enjoy greater peace, happiness, wisdom & equanimity."

"The practice of lovingkindness can uplift us & relieve sorrow & unhappiness."

"Suffering usually relates to wanting things to be different from the way they are."

"The erruption of feelings & emotions that follows a near-death exerience, or any event that causes us to stop & look deeply at the reality of our lives, is ripe with the potential for insight & clarity."
