No Thought Has Any Power. You Have Power. And When You Identify And Believe In The Thought You Give Power

"When we take refuge it means we understand that we can only find a remedy for our suffering in the enlightened aspect of ourselves, in our own inner primordial awareness"

Dr Nida Chenagtsang

Wisdom comes with the ability to be still. Just look and just listen. No more is needed. Being still, looking, and listening activates the non-conceptual intelligence within you. Let stillness direct your words and actions.” Eckhart Tolle
