Peace is the inner nature of humankind. If you find it within yourself, you will then find it everywhere.

When the mind, one-pointed and fully focused, knows the supreme silence in the Heart, this is true learning.

Pleasure and pain are only aspects of the mind. Our essential nature is happiness

Our identification with the mind and body is the chief reason for our failure to know our self as we truly are.

Silence is truth. Silence is bliss. Silence is peace. And hence Silence is the Self.

Grace is always present. You imagine it as something high in the sky, far away, something that has to descend. It is really inside you, in your heart. When the mind rests in its source, grace rushes forth, sprouting as from a spring within you.

Concentration is not thinking of one thing. On the contrary, it is excluding all thoughts, since all thoughts obstruct the sense of one's true being. All efforts are to be directed simply to removing the veil of ignorance. Concentrating the mind solely on the Self will lead to happiness or bliss. Drawing in the thoughts, restraining them and preventing them from straying outwards is called detachment (vairagya). Fixing them in the Self is spiritual practice (sadhana). Concentrating on the heart is the same as concentrating on the Self. Heart is another name for Self.
