More quotes by Sharon Salzberg

Sharon Salzberg

Sharon Salzberg
Restore your attention or bring it to a new level by dramatically slowing down whatever you're doing.
Sharon Salzberg
For all of us, love can be the natural state of our own being naturally at peace, naturally connected, because this becomes the reflection of who we simply are.
Sharon Salzberg
When you're wide open, the world is a good place.
Sharon Salzberg
We need the courage to learn from our past and not live in it.
Sharon Salzberg
The Buddha said that no true spiritual life is possible without a generous heart. . . . Generosity allies itself with an inner feeling of abundance - the feeling that we have enough to share.
Sharon Salzberg
Because the development of inner calm and energy happens completely within and isn't dependent on another person or a particular situation, we begin to feel a resourcefulness and independence that is quite beautiful - and a huge relief.
Sharon Salzberg
Love and concern for all are not things some of us are born with and others are not. Rather, they are results of what we do with our minds: We can choose to transform our minds so that they embody love, or we can allow them to develop habits and false concepts of separation.
Sharon Salzberg
I will love myself as long as I never make a mistake.
Sharon Salzberg
Distraction wastes our energy, concentration restores it.
