“I believe that controlling the desire to relish tasty food and tolerating hunger is a basic requirement if one wants to tread the path of enlightenment. Hunger is the most primal, most basic urge. The first thing newborns of every species come to know is hunger. It is hunger that drives human beings to do great stuff, and it is the very same hunger that drives them to do the unthinkable.”

“When has this world not been in a state of war? There will always be competing ideologies. There will always be people fighting for narratives and what they believe is right. Peace is a myth. An illusion. There is always something brewing. The world is always at war. Or at least a part of it. People become Buddhas by choice, not because of their surroundings.”
