You know that you are. Don't burden yourself with names, just be. Any name or shape you give yourself obscures your real nature.

Contemplate life as infinite, undivided, ever present, ever active, until you realize yourself as one with it. It is not even very difficult, for you will be returning only to your own natural condition.

All happiness comes from awareness. The more we are conscious the deeper the joy. Acceptance of pain, non-resistance, courage and endurance - these open deep and perennial sources of real happiness, true bliss.

The innermost light, shining peacefully and timelessly in the heart, is the real Guru. All others merely show the way.

Nothing can trouble you but your own imagination.

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.

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