In today's rush we all think too much, seek too much, want too much and forget about the joy of just Being.

To make money, to gather knowledge, to learn a new skill, to explore new territory, even to get from A to B - for all these things you need time. For almost everything you need time, except for one thing: to embrace the present moment.

All the things that truly matter, beauty, love, creativity, joy and inner peace arise from beyond the mind.

Power over others is weakness disguised as strength.

Fear arises through identification with form, whether it be a material possession, a physical body, a social role, a self-image, a thought, or an emotion. It arises through unawareness of the formless inner dimension of consciousness or spirit, which is the essence of who you are. You are trapped in object consciousness, unaware of the dimension of inner space which alone is true freedom.

Accept the present moment and find the perfection that is deeper than any form and untouched by time.
