Invincibility is being already broken.
A broken car cannot break down,
so be broken
like everyone else,
but with a smile!

The point one percent
There is the 1% of wealth
and the 1% of spiritual realization
and the intersection of the two
is less likely than being struck by lightning
the same day as winning the lottery.

die it
Live a dreamer,
die an artist.
Live a student,
die a mentor.
Live a comedian,
die laughing.

Dukkha (or self-imposed suffering)
If you skip cold and go straight to freezing,
If you skip warm and go straight to scorching,
If you skip hungry and go straight to starving
Then you are skipping mild, manageable discomfort and causing your own torment.
If you skip warm and go straight to scorching,

Then you are skipping mild, manageable discomfort and causing your own torment.

Woke Life
You'd have to be asleep
Not to realize
You have been awake
Since birth.

If you believe
If you believe death sets you free
That's not morbid...not to me…
This is your philosophy
of life...and living…
death and forgiving
Should it not be the same
as mine...will not make it less divine…

Mind-Body Builder
How did you get so strong?
"I try moving things that are impossible to move."
How did you get so intelligent?
"I try thinking things that are impossible to think."

Snoozing
You have to be
Your own alarm clock,
Ding-a-ling,
If you are ever going to realize
You are already awake.

Yes Knot
I tied my ego
into a knot
with altruism
so my pride
would be tied
to service to others
and because
I could not annihilate
my ego.

The Moment ( For Ram Dass )
We're all just walking each other home.”
~ Ram Dass
Here is the moment—
beautiful and terrible:
yet, there is nothing flawed
across its wildest span of seconds—
only existence reliving
a karmic form of now;
but, tulkus who choose
their return have learned
Love is the fullness
we initially mistake as food
