The reality of truth is not to be bought, to be sold, to be repeated; it cannot be caught in books. It has to be found from moment to moment, in the smile, in the tear, under the dead leaf, in the vagrant thought, in the fullness of love.

The very desire to be certain,to be secure,is the beginning of bondage.It's only when the mind is not caught in the net of certainty,and is not seeking certainty, that it is in a state of discovery.

Thought is matter as much as the floor, the wall, the telephone, are matter.

Religion becomes a matter of belief, and belief acts as a limitation on the mind; and the mind then is never free.

The enemy is not the other, the enemy is you

If you have the desire, if you establish the goal - which is harmony, which is happiness through liberation- then these stages of revolt, of war, of struggle, can be avoided - should be avoided. You are not going to wallow in the gutter if you can jump over it.

The primary cause of disorder in ourselves is the seeking of reality promised by another.
