Present-moment awareness creates a gap not only in the stream of mind but also in the past-future continuum. Nothing truly new and creative can come into this world except through that gap, that clear space of infinite possibility.

...there are two ways of being unhappy: One is not getting what you want, and the other is getting what you want.

Neither failure nor success has the power to change your inner state of Being.

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.

To meet everything and everyone through stillness instead of mental noise is the greatest gift you can offer the universe.

Be present as the watcher of your mind - of your thoughts and emotions as well as your reactions in various situations. Be at least as interested in your reactions as in the situation or person that causes you to react.

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