All the ups and downs are grace in different wrappings, sent to refine consciousness. Say thanks to them all.

If you seek approval from others in this world, you will not know happiness.

When you see what is not real, this laughter comes

The world is full of Buddhas but they're sleeping.

All the ups and downs are grace in different wrappings, sent to refine consciousness. Say thanks to them all.

The emptiness I speak about is not the emptiness the mind imagines. It is not blank. Your body can continue expressing in a natural way. Intelligence is there. Emotions can come. Everything can play, but inside there is total serenity and peace. No planning, no strategising, no personal identity is there. Just the space of pure being. It is what we are, but we dream and believe we are not.

If you are a person this world will seem full of persons. When you are the being you will not feel bound. You will know every being, look in the eyes of every being, and you know, you will recognize yourself. These things are not poetry. They are simple truths. You will experience them. In your heart they will be confirmed.
