The unexpected and unpredictable is real.

Knowledge gives power. In practice it is very simple. To control yourself, know yourself.

There is no question of going anywhere, arriving anywhere, or doing anything; you are there already.

There is nothing wrong with duality as long as it does not create conflict. Multiplicity and variety without strife is joy. In pure consciousness there is light. For warmth, contact is needed. Above the unity of being is the union of love. Love is the purpose of duality.

To understand suffering, you must go beyond pain and pleasure. Your own desires and fears prevent you from understanding and thereby helping others. In reality there are no others, and by helping yourself you help everybody else. If you are serious about the suffering of mankind, you must perfect the only means of help you have, yourself.

There is only one meditation - the rigorous refusal to harbor thoughts.

All you can teach is understanding. The rest comes on its own.
