Every man is guilty of all the good he did not do.
We are here to awaken from our illusion of separateness.
To know that you do not know is the best. To think you know when you do not is a disease. Recognizing this disease as a disease is to be free of it.
The way to do is to be.
Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness.
Being must be felt. It can’t be thought.
You are an infinite spiritual being having a temporary human experience.
You are not your mind.
When you get free from certain fixed concepts of the way the world is, you find it is far more subtle, and far more miraculous, than you thought it was.
Stop measuring days by degree of productivity and start experiencing them by degree of presence.
I am not my thoughts, emotions, sense perceptions, and experiences. I am not the content of my life. I am Life. I am the space in which all things happen. I am consciousness. I am the Now. I Am.
You can only lose something that you have, but you cannot lose something that you are.
Now is all you ever have. There never is anything else. So, you might as well make the now your friend. Otherwise, you are out of alignment with life itself.
Die before you die and find that there is no death.
The power of now can only be realized now. It requires no time and effort. Effort means you’re trying hard to get somewhere, and so you are not present, welcoming this moment as it is.
The truth is: you don’t have a life, you are life.
It is not impermanence that makes us suffer. What makes us suffer is wanting things to be permanent when they are not.
Do not take life’s experiences too seriously. For in reality they are nothing but dream experiences. Play your part in life, but never forget that it is only a role.
Meditation is not a withdrawal from life. Meditation is a process of understanding oneself.
Anything which is troubling you, anything which is irritating you, THAT is your teacher.
