Oprah [Winfrey] and I share a similar consciousness of spirit that is manifested in what some may call God or simply Spirit but others call it the Godhead manifestation of karmic virtue.

The evolutionary impulse is towards disidentification from thinking and the arising of awareness or presence, but the gravitational pull of the old consciousness, or rather unconsciousness, is still quite heavy. It's been around for thousands of years.

On a deeper level you are already complete. When you realize that, there is a joyous energy behind what you do.

Seek out a tree and let it teach you stillness.

The pas has no power to stop you from being present now. Only your grievance about the past can do that.

Living up to an image that you have of yourself or that other people have of you is inauthentic living.

The future is usually imagined as either better or worse than the present. If the imagined future is better, it gives you hope or pleasurable anticipation. If it is worse, it creates anxiety. Both are illusory.
