Overcome any bitterness that may have come because you were not up to the magnitude of the pain entrusted to you. Like the mother of the world who carries the pain of the world in her heart, you are sharing in a certain measure of that cosmic pain, and are called upon to meet it in joy instead of self pity.

There are no limits to your understanding, only those that are due to trying to understand with the mind.

The reason why we are disenchanted with ourselves is because we entertain in the depths of our psyche a kind of vision-an anticipated vision of what we could be if we would be what we might be.

There can be no rebirth without a dark night of the soul, a total annihilation of all that you believed in and thought that you were.

We first have to find the way of freedom from involvement before we can introduce freedom in involvement.

In our relationships we need to uphold that aspect of the person which is the real person and the soul beyond their own self-doubt.
