In order to live fully we may need to look deeply at our own suffering and at the suffering of others. In the depths of every wound we have survived is the strength we need to live. The wisdom our wounds can offer us is a place of refuge. Finding this is not for the faint of heart. But then, neither is life.

It is not that we have a soul, but that we are a soul.

The secret of living well is not in having all the answers but in pursuing unanswerable questions in good company.

I have no idea about what death is, but because I have been in association with it so intimately, I have a much greater sense of the value of life and of what life can be.

Deep inside, our integrity sings to us whether we are listening or not. It is a note that only we can hear. Eventually, when life makes us ready to listen, it will help us to find our way home.

From a good teacher you may learn the secret of listening. You will never learn the secret of life. You will have to listen for yourself

People are waking up in their homes - without conferences. They're waking up because life is waking them up, not because of some conference called "Body and Soul."
