I want to sing like the birds sing, not worrying about who hears or what they think.

Do not leave me, hide in my heart like a secret, wind around my head like a turban. "I come and go as I please," you say, "swift as a heartbeat." You can tease me as much as you like but never leave me.

My dear heart, never think you are better than others. Listen to their sorrows with compassion. If you want peace, don't harbor bad thoughts, do not gossip and don't teach what you do not know.

Let Silence speak to you about the secrets of the universe.

The spirit and the body carry different loads and require different attentions. Too often we put the saddlebags on Jesus and let the donkey run loose in the pasture.

Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion.

Stay in the spiritual fire. Let it cook you.
