Not doing is not about immobility or giving up in despair. It is first and foremost about being able to be with, to accept fully, what is in this moment.

The world we live in is a co-creation, a manifestation of individual consciousness woven into a collective dream. How we are with each other as individuals, as groups, as nations and tribes, is what shapes that dream.

Sometimes I think there are only two instructions we need to follow to develop and deepen our spiritual life: slow down and let go.

It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know whether you can get up after the night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone, and do what needs to be done to feed the children.

Loudly declaring our soul's desire can get the blood running and our passions blazing.

The courage to go deeper is found by letting your desire grow larger than your fear.

What if the question is not why I am so infrequently the person I really want to be, but why do I so infrequently want to be the person I really am?
