Book cover for Code of Ajahn Chah: Simplified Ways for Inner Peace by the Venerable Buddhist Monk
“The heart of the path is quite easy. There's no need to explain anything at length. Let go of love and hate and let things be. That's all that I do in my own practice.”

Ajahn Chah
“Wherever the mind has a lot of attachment, we will experience intense suffering, intense grief, intense difficulty right there. The place we experience the most problems is the place we have the most attraction, longing and concern. Please try to resolve this.

Now, while you still have life and breath, keep on looking at it and reading it until you are able to ‘translate’ it and solve the problem.”
Ajahn Chah

Robert McCammon
“Love. What was it, really? The desire to possess someone, or the desire to free them?”
Robert R. McCammon, Speaks the Nightbird

“In a society that profits from your self doubt, liking yourself is a rebellious act.”
Caroline Caldwell

“Life is not a problem to be solved, but a mystery to be lived, —THOMAS MERTON”
