Suffering needs time. It cannot survive in the now.

Loss of meaning is often part of the suffering that comes with physical loss, but it can also happen to people who have gained everything the world has to offer - who have made it in the eyes of the world - and suddenly find that their success or possessions are empty and unfulfilling.

People don't realize that now is all there ever is; there is no past or future except as memory or anticipation in your mind.

Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness.

Pleasure is always derived from something outside you, whereas joy arises from within.

The primary purpose of life is in being in the NOW.

I sometimes get a distorted view of how quickly humans are evolving, because I meet many people who are evolving beyond ego. Then I have to switch on the TV to realize, "Oh, no, it is not happening to everybody yet." But it is happening.
