When your life begins to harm you, know that you have taken a detour from your true path.

There are no insignificant relationships. Every experience that we have contains purpose and meaning. Each event, each person in our lives embodies an energetic fragment of our own psyche and soul. Our individual spiritual task is to recognize and integrate all of them into our awareness so that the greater pattern of our mission can shine forth in its full dimensions.

The journey of consciousness, of mysticism, is to come to know yourself and your own motivations.

It is our nature to defy gravity, to transcend the limitations of the reasoning mind and connect with the realm of the mystical truth.

Your biography becomes your biology.

We're actually making not one but 30 choices at a time: Our mind is making a choice. Our heart's making choices.

I don't think most people know how to meditate - they fall asleep and they call it meditation. I prefer a kind of sweet, deep, rich prayer in which a person goes in and says, Take me down deep into the reason you gave me life. Take me down deep. It silences the chaos in me. Take me away from my sense. I need to go away now, because I'm in chaos - take me down deep. Hover over me, because I need grace. I say that a lot, many times a day. So that's my practice.
