The more you make your thoughts and beliefs into your identity, the more cut off you are from the spiritual dimension within yourself.

Whatever you fight, you strengthen, and what you resist, persists.

"I am the awareness that is aware that there is attachment." That's the beginning of the transformation of consciousness.

It wasn't through the mind, through thinking, that the miracle that is life on earth or your body were created and are being sustained.

The way I feel is that there is a balance in my life between being alone and interacting with people, between Being and doing.

We can learn not to keep situations or events alive in our minds, but to return our attention continuously to the pristine, timeless present moment rather than be caught up in mental movie making.

Give up defining yourself - to yourself or to others. You won't die. You will come to life. And don't be concerned with how others define you. When they define you, they are limiting themselves, so it's their problem. Whenever you interact with people, don't be there primarily as a function or a role, but as the field of conscious Presence. You can only lose something that you have, but you cannot lose something that you are.
