The only thing that is ultimately real about your journey is the step that you are taking at this moment. That's all there ever is.

The reason why some people love to engage in dangerous activities, such as mountain climbing, car racing, and so on, although they may not be aware of it, is that it forces them into the Now - that intensely alive state that is free of time, free of problems, free of thinking, free of the burden of the personality.

You are this universe experiencing itself, very briefly, as a human.

Give up waiting as a state of mind. When you catch yourself slipping into waiting...snap out of it. Come into the present moment. Just be and enjoy being.

If you walk into a forest - you hear all kinds of subtle sounds - but underneath there is an all pervasive silence.

The egoic madness, or dysfunction, becomes enormously amplified by the science and technology we all have developed.

See if you can catch yourself complaining in either speech or thought, about a situation you find yourself in, what other people do or say, your surroundings, your life situation, even the weather. To complain is always nonacceptance of what is. It invariably carries an unconscious negative charge. When you complain, you make yourself a victim. Leave the situation or accept it. All else is madness.
