There is no connection between I myself yesterday and I myself in this moment

Even though you have pain in your legs, you can do it. Even though your practice is not good enough, you can do it.

The purpose of our practice is just to be yourself.

How much 'ego' do you need? Just enough so that you don't step in front of a bus.

To accept some idea of truth without experiencing it is like a painting of a cake on paper which you cannot eat.

You must be true to your own way until at last you actually come to the point where you see it is necessary to forget all about yourself.

I discovered that it is necessary, absolutely necessary, to believe in nothing. That is, we have to believe in something which has no form and no color--something which exists before all forms and colors appear... No matter what god or doctrine you believe in, if you become attached to it, your belief will be based more or less on a self-centered idea.
