One of the great dangers on the spiritual path is that the ego becomes spiritualized. The ego loves to think of itself as spiritually evolved. It is just another way that it manages to feel important and in control. It is very difficult to free yourself from an enlightened ego.

The past is gone. The future never arrives. In truth, there is no life outside of this moment!

You can be sad for others but you don't have to take on their pain.

You cannot be present in an abstract way. Presence is not about disappearing into nothingness. You can only be present with something that is actually here.

"What do I want?" is your question. And what you want is always changing with the flow. So go with the flow.

The price of freedom is to allow freedom. Very few people are willing to pay the price.

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