Why are we here? We exist not to pursue happiness, which is fleeting, or outer accomplishment, which can always be bettered. We are here to nourish the self.

Most human behavior is nothing other than the avoidance of pain and the pursuit of pleasure.

From a pure heart anything can be accomplished. If you ask what the universe is doing, it is eavesdropping on your every desire.

The essence of God is consciousness. Consciousness can be used for either violence or peace; the choice is ours. When it is expanded, human consciousness chooses non-violence, since that is compatible with love.

The interesting thing is that you don't have to know the answers - simply asking the questions and your reflection itself causes the rewiring of the brain.

When you are exposed to others' negativity, you do not need to respond. You can choose to put your attention elsewhere and let their words be a tiny drop in the infinite ocean of your peaceful silence.

Surrender is faith that the power of Love can accomplish anything even when you cannot forsee the outcome.
