Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: We often think the only way to create happiness is to try to control the outer circumstances of our lives, to try to fix what seems wrong or 
to get rid of everything that bothers us. But the real problem lies in our reaction to those circumstances. What we have to change is the mind and the way it experiences reality. — Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche (1930–2002)

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: You may already have faith, respect, and excitement about the Dharma, and the pure motivation of bodhicitta. Still, it is good to recall and reinforce that motivation from time to time. It helps your mind to go toward the Dharma, the Dharma to become the path, and the path to dispel confusion. – Thrangu Rinpoche (1933–2023)

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Buddhist practice is a process of transformation through purification that brings out the best of what is already there. It does not make people into what they are not, nor import any new material. It allows your ultimate identity as an enlightened being to emerge as you overcome the relative delusions and defilements that mask your buddha-nature. — His Eminence the 12th Tai Situpa

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Whenever we feel that we are definitely right, so much so that we refuse to open up to anything or anybody else, right there we are wrong. It becomes wrong view. When suffering arises, where does it arise from? The cause is wrong view, the fruit of that being suffering. If it was right view it wouldn't cause suffering. — Ajahn Chah (1918–1992)

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Normally, we do not bother to look for goodness in negative actions in ourselves or in others. That’s a mistake, because there’s always one excellent quality: every negative act has within it the seed of purification. There is no such thing as absolute negativity. There is no absolute bad karma. Impossible. – Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche
