Joy does not come from what you do, it flows into what you do and thus into this world from deep within you.

Inner resistance to whatever arises in the present moment pulls you back into unconsciousness. Inner resistance is some form of negativity, complaining, fear, aggression, or anger. This is important because whenever you complain about what somebody else does you're already beginning to fall into that trap of unconsciousness.

Stress is a form of suffering. Look at your body and see what stress does to the body and its functions - what it does to the heart, the circulation, the immune system, the digestive function, the liver.

Feel the Aliveness within your Body. That anchors You in the Now.

It is very hard to tell when I started to be a spiritual teacher. There was a time when occasionally somebody would come and ask me questions. One could say at that point I became a spiritual teacher, although the term did not occur to me then.

A teacher or teaching is not essential for spiritual awakening, but they save time.

The present moment is all you ever have. There is never a time when your life is not 'this moment.' Is this not a fact?
