I am totally safe in the Universe. I am at peace everywhere. I trust life.
Thoughts are like drops of water: with our thoughts we can drown in a sea of negativity, or we can float on the ocean of life.
Inner peace doesn’t come from getting what we want, but from remembering who we are.
Start with the man in the mirror. Start with yourself. Don’t be looking at all the other things. Start with you.
Remember, you are constantly in the act of creating yourself. You are in every moment deciding who and what you are. You decide this largely through the choices you make regarding who and what you feel passionate about.
Mindfulness is the miracle by which we master and restore ourselves.
Mindfulness helps you go home to the present. And every time you go there and recognize a condition of happiness that you have, happiness comes.
Happiness is available. Please help yourself to it.
Go back and take care of yourself. Your body needs you, your feelings need you, your perceptions need you. Your suffering needs you to acknowledge it. Go home and be there for all these things.
Through the portals of silence the healing sun of wisdom and peace will shine upon you.
Having lots of money while not having inner peace is like dying of thirst while bathing in the ocean.
Retire to the center of your being, which is calmness.
Be honest with yourself. The world is not honest with you. The world loves hypocrisy. When you are honest with yourself you find the road to inner peace.
I free myself from hatred through forgiveness and love.
Be kinder to yourself. And then let your kindness flood the world.
Our true nature is like a precious jewel: although it may be temporarily buried in mud, it remains completely brilliant and unaffected. We simply have to uncover it.
This very moment is the perfect teacher, and, lucky for us, it’s with us wherever we go.
The most fundamental aggression to ourselves, the most fundamental harm we can do to ourselves, is to remain ignorant by not having the courage and the respect to look at ourselves honestly and gently.
The only journey is the one within.
If I’m going to die, the best way to prepare is to quiet my mind and open my heart. If I’m going to live, the best way to prepare for it is to quiet my mind and open my heart.
