I don't want to ever, ever give that kind of pain to one living mortal. And I will not give that thought power in my life. That's my practice.
Caroline MyssI am convinced that the deepest desire within each of us is to be liberated from the controlling influences of our own psychic madness or patterns of fear. All other thingsโthe disdain of ordinary life, the need to control others rather than be controlled, the craving for material goods as a means of security and protection against the winds of chaosโare external props that serve as substitutes for the real battle, which is the one waged within the individual soul.
Caroline MyssSomeone asks me what's my practice? I don't want the fear of being humiliated to have authority over me. I don't want it to come near me. I don't want it to have a voice in my decisions. I don't want it to be anywhere near me. What's my practice? That one. I don't ever want to humiliate a human being, and I don't want the fear of being humiliated to participate in my thoughts.
