The repetition of the holy names reveals a presence hidden within the heart. Something begins to happen that's very disturbing - we get happy.

Until you are fully enlightened, you can never know what another person's reality is like for them.

Don't give up on your dreams. You can become the person you know you really are.

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

You can never really know what a guru is as long as you are imprisoned by your own thoughts and circular ego.

If you stub your toe, you don't need to dialog yourself to be good to your foot, do you? When you see things that clearly, there's no dialogue or emotional manipulation that you need to do to extend compassion to that being, because that being is a part of you, and if that being hurts, you hurt.

Don't wait for a Guru. Your life is your Guru.
