When you realize no one else on this earth can be like you... that no other soul may know the beauty, sorrow, light and darkness you alone are given to see... then you will, at last, be the fearless individual your Heart of hearts has called you to be.

Trying to “fix” the people in your life that cause you pain is like massaging your shoes because your feet ache.

Do the moment-to-moment work of dropping anything that wants to drag you down, and Reality itself will see to it that you rise.

Instead of always asking how to get others to approve of you... learn to ask: What do I really want, the applause of the crowds or to quietly have my own life?

Most people would rather complain about some painful life pattern than dare to meet the level of their own consciousness responsible for its repeated appearance... and therein do the work needed to change it once and for all.

Knowledge without Spirit is like finding yourself on a cold night with all the wood in the world and no flame to ignite it.

You cannot separate the onset of a disturbing moment in life from the appearance of some simultaneous new possibility to know a deeper and more unshakable sense of peace.
