You cannot find yourself by going into the past. You can find yourself by coming into the present.

And since the now is all there ever is in your life, your entire life unfolds as the present moment. People don't realize it, but all they ever have is "this". This moment.

The world is in such a mess because of the continuous conflict that arises between human beings - not only between individuals but between tribes and nations and this group and that group and so on. But change can come in only when people start with themselves.

Awareness takes over from thinking. Instead of being in charge of your life, thinking becomes the servant of awareness.

When you lose touch with yourself, you lose yourself in the world.

When life takes away the forms that you thought were the foundation of your life, what's left? The life that needs no foundation - that is the foundation. The formless. The essence.

As you go about your life, don't give 100 percent of your attention to the external world and your mind. Keep some within.
