See human nonsense as nonsense and save years of trying to make sense out of it.

Learn to see things as they really are, not as we imagine they are.

If you call one thing good, you must call its opposite bad. If you think it wonderful to make a big profit in your business, you will also think it terrible if you incur a large loss. The idea is to live above the opposites.

A perfect method for awakening is to examine the results of our daily actions. If they are harmful, we know we need more consciousness.

You have it made when you don't care whether you have it made or not.

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.

Do not mistake desire for love. Desire leaves home in a frantic search for one gratification after another. Love is at home with itself.
