I believe that the maturity to express love and kindness is what will save our minds and what will save our planet. Love is believing in our basic goodness. Love is the natural outpouring of that power, and it is a feeling of offering, and giving, and extending, and liberating ourselves from a mind that is stuck in just wanting. If we are stuck in that mind of always wanting, then our mind is never happy. - Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche
