Let go of thought, become still and alert, and don't try to understand or explain.

Being an outsider to some extent, someone who does not "fit in" with others or is rejected by them for whatever reason, makes life difficult, but it also places you at an advantage as far as enlightenment is concerned. It takes you out of unconsciousness almost by force.

Time isn't precious at all, because it is an illusion.

Watch the clouds. They will teach you about the world of form.

Through death you find yourself, because you no longer identify with form. You realize you are not the form with which you had identified ­ neither the physical nor the psychological form of "me". That form goes. It dissolves and who you are beyond form emerges through the opening where that form was. One could almost say that every form of life obscures God.

Every human being in the human form has limitations.

Practice presence -- embrace the place where life happens.
