Masculine people, by their nature, tend to want to make everything into a journey with a goal.

The most important thing about translucent people is that their life has been deeply transformed by an awakening.

The Iago trance is a state that we've really come to accept as normal, even if we may not feel it to be natural.

The first thing you discover is a kind of emptiness, a silence, a presence which doesn't seem to have content to it, like looking up at a limitless sky. That boundary-less place inside you is your own consciousness, your awareness. When you relax into it, you realize that it's also full - it is everything. You realize this presence is what you really are: Love.

However much you may have expressed love through your life, you can always express love more.

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.

The dominant trance of the planet is that we live in a perpetual sense of lack, a perpetual sense of, "If only I could make this small tweak, then I would feel okay." And, of course, none of the tweaks ever work in the long term.
