Laugh with people laughing, cry with people crying, but don't fall into the river of world illusion. Stay on the banks.

All you want is to be happy. All your desires, whatever they may be, are longing for happiness. Basically, you wish yourself well...desire by itself is not wrong. It is life itself, the urge to grow in knowledge and experience. It is choices you make that are wrong. To imagine that some little thing-food, sex, power, fame-will make you happy is to decieve oneself. Only something as vast and deep as your real self can make you truly and lastingly happy.

Abandon the false and you are free of pain; truth makes happy, truth liberates.

Just as every drop of the ocean carries the taste of the ocean, so does every moment carry the taste of eternity.

To find reality you must be real in the smallest daily action; there can be no deceit in the search for truth.

Come to the conclusion: I am unborn, I was unborn and I shall remain unborn

Seeking out causes is a pastime of the mind. There is no duality of cause and effect. Everything is its own cause.
