Because we all carry the Truth within us as our essence, we recognize it immediately.

When you see around you the human form suffering or dissolving, you have empathy on the human level. You share the suffering because it has to do with the fleetingness of form. But if that is the only level that operates in you, you haven't gone beyond suffering.

Thinking is a wonderful tool if it's applied. Thinking, however, can not become the master. Thinking is a very bad master. If you're dominated by thinking then your life becomes very restricted.

Death is not the opposite of life. Life has no opposite. Death is the opposite of birth.

Enthusiasm cannot be a continuous state. It comes in waves.

Your unhappiness ultimately arises not from the circumstances of your life but from the conditioning of your mind.

Don't look for any other state than the one you are in now; otherwise, you will set up inner conflict and unconscious resistance. Forgive yourself for not being at peace. The moment you completely accept your non-peace, your non-peace becomes transmuted into peace. Anything you accept fully will get you there, will take you into peace. This is the miracle of surrender.
