Die happily and look forward to taking up a new and better form. Like the sun, only when you set in the west can you rise in the east.

Grace comes to forgive and then forgive again.

Look past your thoughts, so you may drink the pure nectar of This Moment.

Reason is the shadow cast by God; God is the sun.

No one knows what makes the soul wake up so happy! Maybe a dawn breeze has blown the veil from the face of God.

One day you will take me completely out of myself, I'll do what the angels cannot do. Your eyelash will write on my cheek the poem that hasn't been thought of.

People are distracted by objects of desire, and afterwards repent of the lust they've indulged, because they have indulged with a phantom and are left even farther from Reality than before. Your desire for the illusory is a wing, by means of which a seeker might ascend to Reality. When you have indulged a lust, your wing drops off; you become lame and that fantasy flees. Preserve the wing and don't indulge such lust, so that the wing of desire may bear you to Paradise. People fancy they are enjoying themselves, but they are really tearing out their wings for the sake of an illusion.
