I feel that there's a certain danger in always being in a lovely rural setting. You can lose touch.

We have the possibility of being far removed from what we are, of beginning to taste it and feel it. That is direct knowledge. That is truth. Anything else is mere words.

Self-acceptance is involved in this process. You have got to be able to look at both your dark and your light side and not get enamored or depressed by either.

Many people excuse themselves by claiming that they don't have to do work anymore because they are beyond it. They are simply afraid of getting their hands dirty. Getting your hands dirty washes your being.

We have to push ourselves to stillness - to the natural state.

Power plants break up the way you see the world; they can push you into the second attention; yet to continuously take them, weakens the subtle psychical body.

I don't believe in anything, yet I believe emphatically in almost everything. It all depends on what seems appropriate at the time.
