“When you take your attention into the present moment, a certain alertness arises. You become more conscious of what's around you, but also, strangely, a sense of presence that is both within and without.”
“To have your attention in the Now is not a denial of what is needed in your life. It is recognition of what is primary.”
“Once bliss becomes normal it's no longer bliss, it's just peace.”

“When you feel confused or burdened by problems focus on THIS INSTANT and ask yourself: WHAT PROBLEM DO I HAVE RIGHT NOW? You will find that there is no problem NOW. A challenge that requires action, possibly, but not a problem.”
“When the basis for your actions is inner alignment with the present moment, your actions become empowered by the intelligence of life itself.”
“Look past your thoughts, so you may drink the pure nectar of This Moment.”
