A guided meditation focusing on how to cultivate equanimity with Buddhist teacher Joseph Goldstein.
Develop a mind that is vast like space, where experience both pleasant and unpleasant can appear and disappear without conflict, struggle or harm. Rest in a mind like vast sky.
~ Buddha
I am the heir of my own actions, my happiness and unhappiness depends on my actions, not upon on my wishes.

Go beyond good and bad by refraining from mentally labeling anything as good or bad. When you go beyond the habitual naming, the power of the universe moves through you. When you are in a non-reactive relationship to experiences, what you would have called "bad" before often turns around quickly, if not immediately, through the power of life itself.
Watch what happens when you don't name an experience as "bad" and instead bring an inner acceptance, an inner "yes" to it, and so let it be as it is.
~Eckhart Tolle

I am of the nature to age, I have not gone beyond aging.
I am of the nature to sicken, I have not gone beyond sickness.
I am of the nature to die, I have not gone beyond dying.
All that is mine, beloved and pleasing, will become otherwise,
will become separated from me.
I am the owner of my karma, the heir of my karma, born of my karma,
related to my karma, abide supported by my karma.
Whatever karma I shall do, for good or for ill, of that will I be the heir.
Thus, we should frequently recollect.

If anyone says that a person must reap according to his deeds, if anyone thinks the law of karma is inexorable, then he is saying that there is no spiritual life or growth, nor is there any opportunity to bring confusion to an end. But if anyone says that what a person reaps is in accordance with his deeds, in that case a spiritual life can exist and there is opportunity for realization.
~ Anguttara Nikaya

Without love, there is no right action. We talk about action. We do so many kinds of social work. But when there is love in your heart, in your eyes, in your blood, in your face, you are a different human being. Whatever you do then has beauty, has grace, is a right action.
~ Jiddu Krishnamurti
And the mind of the Great Being was not moved.
