To attain the enlightened state of a buddha does not mean that we have to add something or create something that has never existed before. We also do not have to do something once it is attained. The moment that we remove all of the obscurations that cover our primordial nature, all of the enlightened qualities of a buddha just naturally, spontaneously and effortlessly arise.

~ Chamtrul Rinpoche

When desire or anger arise, the weakest practitioners immediately blame the outside world, and never practice. While the strongest practitioners immediately look inside, and always practice.

~ Chamtrul Rinpoche

The most precious gift that you could ever give to somebody is the Dharma. The most precious gift that you could ever give to yourself is the practice of it.
