Although our package of skin and bones looks very convincing, it is a mask, an illusion, disguising our true self, which has no limitations.

We are attracted to people who have traits we want in ourselves, and usually we are unattracted to people with traits that we share.

We are powerful magical beings.

Even when you think you have your life all mapped out, things happen that shape your destiny in ways you might never have imagined.

Love allows your beloved the freedom to be unlike you. Attachment asks for conformity to your needs and desires. Love imposes no demands. Attachment expresses an overwhelming demand - "Make me feel whole." Love expands beyond the limits of two people. Attachment tries to exclude everything but two people.

Forgiveness belongs to those who know how to love in the first place.

You are the luminous mystery in which the entire universe with its forms and phenomena arises and subsides. When this realization dawns there is a complete transformation of your personal self into your universal self . . . the complete loss of all fear, including death. You have become a being who radiates love the same way the sun radiates light. You have finally arrived at the place from which your journey began.
