The nature of love is tied to karma in a very deep way. The nature of love is to understand that you are literally every other person in the world and at some point in your sort of conscious experience, you will actually be that person.

I deeply know and believe... everyone's the hero of their own story ... I deeply believe we're all human beings created equally. Once you think about that and that everyone is fighting some sort of battle or war that you don't know about, that will change the way you go about, you know, the world and your business.

Through meditation, I can sort of get a hint of that... I can start feeling how my mind is conjuring up these concepts, and these objects, and these feelings and truly see that—at least see a bit more of—how the nature of everything I experience is fundamentally created by my own consciousness.

What do I want for my kid? I don't want my kid to be rich or famous ... What I want is for him to be the source of his own approval in the world; for him to be a kind person and compassionate; for him to be empathetic and to have self-love and love for other people. That's all I care about.

Why is there something instead of nothing? That is, to me, the most profound question. Where did this all come from? And why is something existing even the default state of the universe?

One of the best explanations for the nature of reality is it is basically equivalent to consciousness, and as I get deeper into meditation, I feel like that's closer to the answer.

I'd say the nature of reality is how much you can play around with lowering your sensory gating channels and experiencing everything simultaneously while also experiencing nothing.
