Sogyal Rinpoche

The act of meditation is being spacious.

Sogyal Rinpoche

The most essential thing in life is to establish an unafraid, heartfelt communication with others.

Sogyal Rinpoche

There is always hope. If we work with and transform our minds, then happiness is ours.

Sogyal Rinpoche

We may idealize freedom, but when it comes to our habits, we are completely enslaved.

Sogyal Rinpoche

What is born will die, What has been gathered will be dispersed, What has been accumulated will be exhausted, What has been built up will collapse, And what has been high will be brought low.

Sogyal Rinpoche

What we have to learn, in both meditation and in life, is to be free of attachment to the good experiences, and free of aversion to the negative ones.

Sogyal Rinpoche

Whatever we have done with our lives makes us what we are when we die. And everything, absolutely everything, counts.
