Much suffering, much unhappiness arises when you take each thought that comes into your head for the truth.

I know that at the core of each religion there is the truth, heavily obscured in some cases, but it's there.

Most humans live in the mindset that this moment is only important because it's getting them to the next one.

When you listen to the voice in your head, listen to it impartially. That is to say, do not judge. You'll soon realize: there is the voice, and here I am listening to it, watching it. This I am realization, this sense of your own presence, is not a thought. It arises from beyond the mind.

You must have failed deeply on some level or experienced some deep loss or pain to be drawn to the spiritual dimension. Or perhaps your very success became empty and meaningless and so turned out to be a failure.
