Quotes by Lama Marut (?)

“Worrying about tomorrow doesn鈥檛 change tomorrow. But it does change today鈥攁nd not for the better.”

“Actually we cannot attain enlightenment until we give up the notion of me personally attaining it. As long as the enlightenment drama has a central character known as me, who has certain attributes, there is no hope of attaining enlightenment, because it鈥檚 nobody鈥檚 project.”
― Lama Marut, Be Nobody

“Being nobody is not being nothing. It is an absence (no-body) and not a presence (some-body), but it is the emptiness that makes the plenitude possible. It is the hole in the middle that makes a donut what it is; it is the empty glass that can hold whatever is poured into it; it is the undifferentiated ocean from which all particular waves arise, last for a while, and then return to their source.”
― Lama Marut, Be Nobody
