Do not be impatient with your seemingly slow progress. Do not try to run faster than you presently can. If you are studying, reflecting and trying, you are making progress whether you are aware of it or not. A traveler walking the road in the darkness of night is still going forward. Someday, some way, everything will break open, like the natural unfolding of a rosebud.

We can no more enjoy life by hoping for a future result than we can enjoy music by waiting for the final note.

Healing fails to occur because it is much easier to injure another than to heal oneself.

The Truth must be told at all costs, no matter how unpopular it may be. The authentic spiritual leader, having freed himself of his own false need to be popular, tells the Truth whether it falls on fertile or stony ground. Such a teacher is the salt of the earth, though few know it. If you think the world is delirious as is, you would find it intolerable without his healing influence.

When the mind is exhausted in trying to find the answer, the answer dawns.

Instead of fighting your problems, picture your way out of them.

Men have the illusion of having a duty to make the world spin properly, which is precisely what makes it wobble.
