The day is conscious of itself.
Give yourself completely to the one you call God. If you are not doing it you are wasting your time here.
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
The mirror of the heart must be clear, so you can discern the ugly from the beautiful.
Be drunk with Love, for Love is all that exists. Where is intimacy found if not in the give and take of Love.
Even though in the world you are the most learned scholar of the time, Behold the vanishing of this world and this time!
If the spiritual universe and the way to it were shown, No one would remain in this world for a single moment.
Kill the cow of your ego as quickly as you can, so that your inner spirit can come to life and attain true awareness.
To become spiritual, you must die to self, and come alive in the Lord. Only then will the mysteries of God fall from your lips. To die to self through self-discipline causes suffering but brings you everlasting life.
Our purpose here on earth: to manifest the very nature of our spirit, which is touched by the spirit of God.
What is the mirror of Being? Non-being. Bring non-being as your gift, if you are not a fool.
A SEEING eye is better than three hundred blind men’s: The eye can distinguish pearls from pebbles.
Every prophet and every saint has a way, But all lead to God. All ways are really one.
Love is that flame that once kindled burns everything, and only the mystery and the journey remain.
The intellectual quest, though fine as pearl or coral, is not the spiritual search. That spiritual search is on another level. Spiritual wine is a different substance.

If your knowledge of fire has been turned to certainty by words alone, then seek to be cooked by the fire itself. Don’t abide in borrowed certainty. There is no real certainty until you burn; if you wish for this, sit down in the fire.
Little by little, wean yourself. This is the gist of what I have to say. From an embryo whose nourishment comes in the blood, move to an infant drinking milk, to a child on solid food, to a searcher after wisdom, to a hunter of invisible game.
Loosen the bonds of avarice from your hands and neck.
There is a life in you, search that life, search the secret jewel in the mountain of your body.
