  • Contemplation frees individuals from habits and patterns that cause suffering and promotes compassion and care.
  • Contemplation is not just an individual practice, but also a communal one.
  • Contemplative psychology explores the concept of the human person as a bundle of habits and activities that create our sense of self and the world.
  • Contemplation can dissolve ego habits and projections, leading to more humane and loving relationships.
  • The integration of contemplation and action is essential for social transformation. The ego constructs a sense of self based on our sensory input, leading to patterns of confirmation bias and repetitive behavior.
  • Contemplation allows the mind to slow down and see the construction process of the ego, leading to a more open and expansive sense of self.
  • Powerful presence is not about charisma or ego-driven leadership, but about being fully present and caring for others without personal agendas.
  • Our society worships money and wealth, often distorting or ignoring teachings on generosity and economic justice.
  • Engaging in the spiritual life can bring about personal and societal transformation, even in the face of suffering and uncertainty.
  • Hope is not about clinging to a specific outcome, but about letting go of ego-driven expectations and trusting in the power of love and creativity.
