"The principal characteristic of genuine happiness is peace: inner peace."

His holiness the 14th Dalai Lama (Born 1934) Tibet

"The mind should be a vastness like the sky.

Mental events should be allowed to disperse like clouds.

Longchenpa (1308-1363), Tibet

Simply stop.

Let all words drop

In the timeless song of silence

there is a mountain of stillness so full of life

A sky of presence untouched by clouds

When when       is            no more

 only here      is        the core

nearer than near

so wonderfully clear

The boundless Rose of joy

is dis-covered as the true Heart

from which   you   are never apart

Silent knowing is peacefully glowing

The dawn of wisdom breaks the night

In delight enjoy being the light

simply as it

is

is

 is
