If I think that someone else is causing my problem, I'm insane.

To argue with reality is to argue with God

I'm not in Iraq. I'm here in California. Have I had an argument with my husband today? Have I been at war with someone in my life today - or with myself? Let me work on that. That way war is ending somewhere in the world.

The last story: God is everything, God is good.

If people are living their lives for security and comfort and pleasure, then mind's every waking moment will be plotting those things. That's how it stays identified - as a body, as a you.

Every moment a gift: are you unwrapping yours now, and now, and now?

That's the purpose of stress. It's a friend. It's an alarm clock, built in to let you know that it's time to do The Work.
