The translucent life is very much about overflowing with a gift to the world, rather than being here to consume or to get something for yourself.

Most of the myths that we carry about spirituality are because we have been dominated by this hyper-masculine trance.

They see that who they are is the silence in which sound is happening, the spaciousness in which movement occurs. This kind of recognition, whether fleeting or abiding, is called an awakening.

There were statistically more women than men on the planet. Why should every major religion have been founded by men and propagated by men?

I don't think there is any end to translucence. It's an endless journey, rather like playing the violin.

Most of us spend our lives convinced that there's something missing: "If only I had a bigger barbecue, more money, a bigger car, a different wife, a different.... If only I could upgrade somehow, then I would be okay."

Awakening is usually precipitated by the honest, sincere, inquiry into who you really are.
