Spiritual progress is like detoxification. Things have to come up in order to be released. Once we have asked to be healed, then our unhealed places are forced to the surface.

If our emotional stability is based on what other people do or do not do, then we have no stability. If our emotional stability is based on love that is changeless and unalterable, then we attain the stability of God.

I think the violence in the world right now is being reflected inside people. And I also believe the violence inside people is being reflected in the world.

Let's forgive the past and who we were then. Let's embrace the present and who we're capable of becoming. Let's surrender the future and watch miracles unfold.

Nothing is so dangerous for our security as large groups of desperate people.

I think daily life is where the lessons come in - that's where the tests and the growth come in.

We are dominated on this planet by a fear-based rather than a love-based thought system.
