The next message you need is always right where you are.

I would like my life to be a statement of love and compassion--and where it isn't, that's where my work lies.

When you concentrate on the middle of your chest - this is where loving awareness lives. This is the spiritual heart. Not the beating heart, not the emotional heart. This spiri­tual heart goes way back - goes back many incarnations. We call it the soul.

I think that people should give gifts by really recognizing the spiritual worth of the person and their (the givers') own worth. You usually give a present that the other person needs or wants, and I think it just emphasizes wants and needs.

Allowing dying to be so intensely present enriches both the preciousness of each moment and our detachment from it.

It's all real and it's all illusory: that's Awareness!

Real happiness lies in that which never comes nor goes, but simply is.
