You are never more essentially, more deeply, yourself than when you are still.

The intensity of the pain depends on the degree of resistance to the present moment.

As long as you are unable to access the power of the Now, every emotional pain that you experience leaves behind a residue of pain that lives on in you.

You simply have to surrender to the present moment. Be alert. Watch something in a state of alertness. Always, continuously, bring that into everyday life, not spirituality here and getting on with your life there.

If you really want to know your mind, the body will always give you a truthful reflection, so look at the emotion, or rather feel it in your body. If there is an apparent conflict between them, the thought will be the lie, the emotion will be the truth.

A great silent space holds all of nature in its embrace. It also holds you.

Discontent, blaming, complaining, self-pity cannot serve as a foundation for a good future, no matter how much effort you make.
