“It's time to break our ties with anything in us that would rather complain about its situation than go to work to change it.”
“It isn't something of which most of us are aware, but we human beings are 'marked' with a certain strange feature, and that is: We want to change.”
“We become what we love. What we put first in our lives is what we receive from life.”
“There is nothing as certain as silence, stillness, and solitude to introduce you to the secrets of yourself.”
“Resistance to revelation, resistance to becoming conscious of all that dwells within us - high and low, light and dark - is the anti-change factor. It is also the mainspring of all our psychological fears.”
“Psychologically speaking, what is true requires no protection, and never becomes negative when challenged. On the other hand, what is false almost never stops trying to protect itself, which it does by finding fault with whatever or whoever challenges the false image behind which it always hides.”
“What good is any feeling we may have about ourselves, if it only lasts as long as others agree to it?”
“Staying present, living in Presence is the best gift anyone can give to those they love.”
“What is the nature of that place where our original self is one with its longing to explore its own deepest possibilities, and where discovering the treasures waiting there is the same as fulfilling our purpose for being?”
“Being fully present is the best guarantee for a bright future.”
“Instead of always asking yourself how to clear up your mental fog, learn to ask: "Can confusion know anything about clarity?"”
“Fearlessness comes with the birth of this new understanding: The only reason life changes as it does is to reveal the secret Goodness underlying those same changes.”
“Learn to be one with who you are in Reality, and the waves of a thousand passing worlds cannot wash you away.”
“Wasting your time in anxious worry over what you may not have is a good way to waste what you need to get it.”
“If you don't leap, you'll never know what it's like to fly.”
“What you don't want to know about yourself wants to be known, which is why it keeps 'showing up' at your door unannounced!”
“Letting go, at its heart, is an act of agreement with Life.”
“The secret self knows the anguish of our attachments and assures us that letting go of what we think we must have to be happy is the same as letting go of our unhappiness.”
“The more time we spend considering the shortcomings of others, the smaller a person we become.”
“Never run from what you don't understand, as it will be waiting for you every time you come to a stop.”
“You have a destination far beyond where you find yourself standing today.”
“Past mistakes cannot create a present pain; no mistake in life has the power to make us ache any more than the echo of someone crying can shed tears.”
“Looking to any angry, anxious, or otherwise stressed emotional state to help you sort out the pain you're in is like trying to organize your monthly bills by throwing them into a blender”
“The right attitude toward any negative state begins with understanding that its only authority over you is a direct reflection of your attitude towards it.”
“Your past is just that, the past, a place within your psyche with no more reality to it then the picture of a castle on a postcard is made from stone.”
