“Ultimately, happiness comes down to choosing between the discomfort of becoming aware of your mental afflictions and the discomfort of being ruled by them.”
Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, The Joy of Living: Unlocking the Secret and Science of Happiness

“Emotional states are fairly quick bursts of neuronal gossip. Traits, on the other hand, are more like the neuronal equivalent of committed relationships.”
Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche

“If you're determined to think of yourself as limited, fearful, vulnerable, or scarred by past experience, know only that you have chosen to do so.”
Yongey Mingyur, Joyful Wisdom: Embracing Change and Finding Freedom
