Quote of the Day: Open Up & Let Go.

“These days the world really needs people who are willing to let their hearts, their bodhicitta, ripen.

There’s such widespread devastation and suffering: people are being run over by tanks or their houses are being blown up or soldiers are knocking on their doors in the middle of the night and taking them away and torturing them and killing their children and their loved ones. People are starving.

It’s a hard time.

We who are living in the lap of luxury with our pitiful little psychological problems have a tremendous responsibility to let our clarity and our heart, our warmth, and our ability ripen, to open up and let go, because it’s so contagious.”

~ Pema Chodron
