Falling in love you remain a child; rising in love you mature. By and by love becomes not a relationship, it becomes a state of your being. Not that you are in love – now you are love.
Truth is not something outside to be discovered, it is something inside to be realized.
You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
Wisdom is knowing I am nothing, Love is knowing I am everything, and between the two my life moves.
My meditation is simple. It does not require any complex practices. It is simple. It is singing. It is dancing. It is sitting silently.
All the things that truly matter, beauty, love, creativity, joy and inner peace arise from beyond the mind.
Realize deeply that the present moment is all you will ever have.
It is not uncommon for people to spend their whole life waiting to start living.
Those who flow as life flows know they need no other force.
Be here now.
The past is gone, the future is not yet here, and if we do not go back to ourselves in the present moment, we cannot be in touch with life.
Quiet the mind, and the soul will speak.
Hope and fear are both phantoms that arise from thinking of the self. When we don’t see the self as self, what do we have to fear?
Attachment to views is the greatest impediment to the spiritual path.
I once read that people who study others are wise but those who study themselves are enlightened.
Fame is foolish, it is pointless, meaningless. Even if the whole world knows you, how does it make you richer? How does it make your life more blissful? How does it help you to be more understanding, to be more aware? To be more alert, to be more alive?
Find ecstasy within yourself. It is not out there. It is in your innermost flowering. The one you are looking for is you.
We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, but are spiritual beings having a human experience.
There exists no God. What exists is godliness, and that godliness surrounds you. We are all in the same ocean.
Not-knowing is true knowledge. Presuming to know is a disease. First realize that you are sick; then you can move toward health.
