You are never more essentially, more deeply, yourself than when you are still.

The only thing that is ultimately real about your journey is the step that you are taking at this moment. That's all there ever is.

To stay present in everyday life, it helps to be deeply rooted within yourself; otherwise, the mind, which has incredible momentum, will drag you along like a wild river.

Neither failure nor success has the power to change your inner state of Being.

I cannot tell you any spiritual truth that deep within you don’t know already. All I can do is remind you of what you have forgotten.

The more you make your thoughts (beliefs) into your identity, the more cut off you are from the spiritual dimension within yourself.

For what you do to others, you do to yourself.

You are the universe, expressing itself as a human for a little while.

In the stillness of your presence, you can feel your own formless and timeless reality as the unmanifested life that animates your physical form. You can then feel the same life deep within every other human and every other creature. You look beyond the veil of form and separation. This is the realization of oneness. This is love.

If people believe the world is here to satisfy them, whenever they begin to encounter their limitations, they become unhappy again. They don’t realize that the world—and by that I mean anything in the world of form, physical form, some mental forms, or emotional forms—cannot give you lasting fulfillment or satisfaction or tell you who you are. They don’t realize what they are looking for is on the formless level, and they’re seeking it on the level of form and that leads to the frustration of human existence.
