The Presence is our own presence. We are not getting anything from the outside. We already have all we need inside.

I knew that if I did not start chanting with people, that I would never be able to clean out the dark corners of my own heart. I knew it with every cell in my body and mind.

We have to learn to love people even if they are not giving you what you want... and then not take it personally. If you feel hurt, you have to recognize that they are not hurting you because you are you, but because they are them. You have to try not to be so hard on yourself.

Ultimately when I am with you all, what I see is my Guru. And what is he? He is love.

Even if somebody tells us something, the hit, the light goes on inside of us, not out there. We learn and understand everything within ourselves.

I didn't know what I was looking for, but I knew whatever it was that I was looking for was real.

You can’t think yourself out of a box that’s made of your thoughts.
