His Holiness The 12th Gyalwang Drukpa, Jigmet Pema Wangchen

Give yourself time and space to be connected with nature. The external nature will bring you closer to your own nature. If we keep looking outside for something, for happiness, for peace, for love, for luck, for bliss, we will never be able to find them, because they are all within us. If we cannot develop or find these positive qualities within ourselves, then we will always be affected by external situations. To have this inner development, we have to slow down, listen more, talk less, pay more attention to our inner voice, and pay more attention to the present, instead of thinking about the future and regretting the past. For us, most of the time, our mind is everywhere. Therefore we cannot appreciate even our food, our family, our job, our friends; forget about appreciating our own spirituality.
