When we come to nonattachment, then we can understand the marvelous mystery of the universe: how it is intense activity and at the same time intense peace, how it is work every moment and rest every moment.

Peace is a lot of things to a lot of people, it can be a successful realtionship, prosperous career, five children, a day in the park, laying on the beach with the glaring sun pounding on your face or for me; peace is nonattachment to basically everything, disassociating yourself from everybody and everything around you, concentrating on your breathing, on the beat of your heart, taking yourself through your mind and thoughts to a quiet and serene space where nothing matters but the working of the universe. You are lost yet you feel home. You are far away, yet you feel so close to your inner God. You feel lonely, yet you feel so content with yourself. Your problems, your stress, the confusion and disfunctional world are so far away, they are from another planet. Your thoughts are deep from within your body's solar system of existence. You are at peace and never want to come back to the freeways, McDonalds, breaking news, the bills, the discontent customer that didn't get a grommet hole in the desk. You just want to stay suspended in space, deep thought and total peacefulness. MacVegan
"As human beings we all want to be happy and free from misery… we have learned that the key to happiness is inner peace. The greatest obstacles to inner peace are disturbing emotions such as anger, attachment, fear and suspicion, while love and compassion and a sense of universal responsibility are the sources of peace and happiness."
Dalai Lama quotes .....MacVegan
"Think about any attachments that are depleting your emotional reserves. Consider letting them go."
Oprah Winfrey quotes .....MacVegan
Consciousness will always be present, though a particular consciousness may cease. For example, the particular tactile consciousness that is present within this human body will cease when the body comes to an end. Likewise, consciousnesses that are influenced by ignorance, by anger or by attachment, these too will cease. But the basic, ultimate, innermost subtle consciousness will always remain. It has no beginning, and it will have not end."
Dalai Lama quotes.....MacVegan copies and paste
"The person whose mind is always free from attachment, who has subdued the mind and senses, and who is free from desires, attains the supreme perfection of freedom from Karma through renunciation."
Bhagavad Gita quotes....MacVegan
"Better indeed is knowledge than mechanical practice. Better than knowledge is meditation. But better still is surrender of attachment to results, because there follows immediate peace."
Bhagavad Gita quotes......ditto....MacVegan
