Most human beings spend their lives battling with opposing inner forces: what they think they should do versus what they are doing; how they feel about themselves versus how they are; whether they think they’re right and worthy or wrong and unworthy. The separate self is just the conglomeration of these opposing forces. When the self drops away, inner division drops away with it.

A quiet mind married to integrity of heart is the birth of wisdom.

The truth is you can't try to let go. Trying is the opposite of letting go. To let go is to relinquish trying. To let go is much more like to let be.

You can't look at what's looking. You can't think about that which is prior to thought.

Space and stillness is the light that illuminates the beauty of our soul's being.
