Love is the beginning of the journey, its end, and the journey itself.

There exists within each of us a natural state of simple and open awareness in which we feel happy, light, and at peace. In contrast, the state of suffering, or unhappiness, is complicated.

Every desire of yours that comes true brings you a little closer to seeing that what you wanted exists nowhere but in you.

Give the needs you lack and they will be returned to you one hundred fold.

I think if we can be totally nonviolent within our own self, because we are part of the web of life, we will restore cosmic harmony.

Meditation will work on anyone who has a functioning human nervous system. All you need is the intelligence to follow simple instructions. Even children as young as 4 and 5 have been taught to meditate successfully.

If the most you can do right now is walk around the block, then do that, and you will be surprised how quickly you increase your endurance and enthusiasm for moving and breathing.
