"Generosity is about sharing – and not just in material terms. It’s an attitude to life; it’s a response to the interrelatedness that is the basis of all life."

"...intention shapes all phenomena whatsoever that are unskillful, part of the unskillful, on the side of the unskillful. Intention is the first of those phenomena to arise, and unskillful phenomena follow right behind.”

"It is quite impossible for a mendicant who doesn’t respect the Teacher to respect the teaching. A mendicant who disrespects the Teacher disrespects the teaching. "

"When we meditate at home and in daily life, the challenges and benefits of practice become much more real than when we are on a meditation retreat. It takes a real practice to deal with real situations, and real unwholesome reactions. "

The Buddha taught two kinds of happiness:

Samissa — joy mixed with craving, tied to the senses.

Nirāmisa — pure joy, free from attachment.

He placed these teachings in vedanā so we can feel the difference ourselves.

The Dhamma is an affair of the heart and mind. When the words spoken are Dhamma and the intention to speak is Dhamma, then the people listening have to make their intention Dhamma, too...When these three factors come together, listening to the Dhamma gives rise to countless benefits.
