Whatever God does, the first outburst is always compassion.

The knower and the known are one. Simple people imagine that they should see God as if he stood there and they here. This is not so. God and I, we are one in knowledge.

Every creature is a word of God.

To the extent that you eliminate ego from your activities, God comes into them - but no more and no less. Begin with that, and let it cost you your uttermost. In this way, and no other, is true peace to be found.

This is not only a commandment but also a promise or reward.

You will have peace to the extent that you have God, and the further you are away from God the less you will be at peace... Thus you may measure your progress with God by measuring your peace or the lack of it.

In my breaking through...I transcend all creatures and am neither God nor creature...for in this breaking through I find that God and I are both the same.
