I look at you, and I see in you the yearning to get back to God. That yearning is love.

I've got to love the souls of people. Because I can't love every incarnation. To love their souls, I have to identify with my own soul.

I practice turning people into trees. Which means appreciating them just the way they are

The ego is frightened by death, because ego is part of the incarnation and ends with it. That is why we learn to identify with our soul, as the soul continues after death. For the soul, death is just another moment.

The way we regard death is critical to the way we experience life. When your fear of death changes, the way you live your life changes.

You may have expected that enlightenment would come ZAP! instantaneous and permanent.This is unlikely.After the first ah ha expereince, it can be thougth of as a thinning of a layer of clouds.

I used to be afraid of things like strokes, but I've now discovered that the fear of the stroke is worse than the stroke itself.
