You simply have to surrender to the present moment. Be alert. Watch something in a state of alertness. Always, continuously, bring that into everyday life, not spirituality here and getting on with your life there.

Underneath your physical and psychological form, you are one with Life itself, one with Being.

If there are people you haven't forgiven, you're not going to really awaken. You have to let go.

On the deepest level, what I know for sure is that who I am, essentially, is consciousness and consciousness is timeless and it transcends the body; it transcends the psychological "me," the egoic self. Everybody can know themselves as consciousness.

When I'm with people, I'm a spiritual teacher. That's the function, but it's not my identity. The moment I'm alone, my deepest joy is to benobody, to relinquish the function of a teacher. It's a temporary function.

To offer no resistance to life is to be in a state of grace, ease, and lightness.

It seems that most people need to experience a great deal of suffering before they will relinquish resistance and accept - before they will forgive.
