The only thing I trust is silence. And I trust silence completely.

Everything that happens is designed to awaken us. Everything.

The very essence of your Being is infinite, eternal silence. It is your true nature. It is the essence of all existence.

If you accept full responsibility for yourself, you will be released forever from expectation, resentment, blame and guilt.

It is not until you awaken and become fully present that you will realize that you have not been present. It is not until you awaken that you will realize you have been asleep, dreaming that you are awake.

When you are present, you are transcendent of the mind and ego and so you can witness your mind and ego. You can be conscious of your thoughts without being lost in them when they arise.

If your commitment is to being present, then there will come a time when being present becomes your natural state. The present moment becomes your home. You will have short excursions into the world of the mind, but you never go so far into the mind that you get lost there.
