Awakening is about liberating yourself from the prison that is the world of the mind and daring to be here as all that you are.
Leonard JacobsonYou don't realize that if you stop looking backwards craving the love and acceptance which you didn't receive from your parents, then you might open your eyes to what is available for you now. But you won't let go. If only you could see that looking back into an incomplete and imperfect past, with regret, blame, guilt or resentment is keeping you from the treasures that await you here now. The past has gone. You cannot rectify something that is no longer with you.
Leonard Jacobson"What do I want?" is your question. And what you want is always changing with the flow. So go with the flow.
Leonard JacobsonThe very essence of your Being is infinite, eternal silence. It is your true nature. It is the essence of all existence.
Leonard JacobsonIn Presence, there is no outcome. It is our involvement in the outcome that keeps us imprisoned in an imagined future. In Presence, there is only now.
Leonard JacobsonOnce you have found yourself and accepted your aloneness, then the greatest blessing is to share the love that arises within you. Each new moment presents the richest opportunity to be loving. And you can share love in the simplest of ways. Be soft and gentle. Be caring and kind. Be loving in an ordinary way, without any sense of wanting anything back, Life offers you the most precious gift. The gift of allowing you to be present and share love.
