Do not assert with your mouth what your heart denies.
-Yin Chih Wen

If you keep your focus fixed on the 'witness' - the one who is watching rather
than the 'ego' - the doer...your identification with the objects, people and acts will

them.
-Deep Trivedi
Because we suppress our anger against the strong and powerful, we keep

You simply understand that here including you, everything just exists, be it
happiness - sorrows or vice - virtues. Then rather than favouring one, why don't
you just enjoy watching the show?
-Deep Trivedi
