| To change circumstances, to make them better, we need to be working with thoughts that are aligned with our deepest sense of truth and with all our ways of knowing: body, heart, mind, spirit.

| Pausing the Internal Dialogue
Part of our task is to discover how all our ancestors inform our lives-and the same holds true for all forms of life, for we have been shaped not only by human ancestors but also by the environments in which they lived.

| The Four Highest Emotions
The second of the four divine abodes “the highest emotions” is compassion, whose far enemy is cruelty and whose near enemy is pity. Pity can’t give others any help. If someone pours out her heart to us and we pity her, then two people are suffering instead of one. If by contrast we give her our compassion, we help her through her trouble.
It’s very important to develop compassion for oneself, because it’s the precondition for being able to do so for others. If someone doesn’t meet us lovingly, it will be easier for us to give this person compassion instead of love.
– Ayya Khema, Lion’s Roar
