You can't have an up without a down. You can't have a left without a right. This is duality. If you have a problem, you must already have the solution. The question is, do you really want the solution, or do you want to perpetuate the problem?

I'm most inspired whenever I hear of even the smallest act of human kindness.

The world is a projection of our thoughts - the thoughts we believe.

I came to see that there was nothing to forgive, that I was the one who caused my own problems.

No one told me that you could be alive and be happy. No one told me, and if someone had I wouldn't have believed them. I thought that you had to die - physically die - to escape.

When we're not defending and justifying, and we're being very still, our answers can and do shock us.

You might believe that it's only for their own good, but how does it feel when you try to manipulate the people you love? Are you teaching them that your love is conditional? Maybe through inquiry we can find another way.
