As soon as you honor the present moment, all unhappiness and struggle dissolve.
All the things that truly matter, beauty, love, creativity, joy and inner peace arise from beyond the mind.
The mind is a superb instrument if used rightly. Used wrongly, however, it becomes very destructive. To put it more accurately... you usually don't use it at all. It uses you.
Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have. Make the Now the primary focus of your life.
To be identified with your mind is to be trapped in time: the compulsion to live almost exclusively through memory and anticipation.
Life isn't as serious as the mind makes it out to be.
Focus attention on the feeling inside you. Know that it is the pain-body. Accept that it is there. Don't think about it - don't let the feeling turn into thinking. Don't judge or analyze. Don't make an identity for yourself out of it. Stay present, and continue to be the observer of what is happening inside you. Become aware not only of the emotional pain but also of "the one who observes," the silent watcher. This is the power of the Now, the power of your own conscious presence. Then see what happens.
Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at the moment.
Nothing has happened in the past; it happened in the Now. Nothing will ever happen in the future; it will happen in the Now.
◦"At the deepest level of Being, you are one with all that is
If you can get the inside right, the outside will fall into place.
Time isn't precious at all, because it is an illusion.
You find God the moment you realize that you don't need to seek God
Emotion arises at the place where mind and body meet. It is the body's reaction to your mind - or you might say, a reflection of your mind in the body.
It is not uncommon for people to spend their whole life waiting to start living.
Love is a state of Being. Your love is not outside; it is deep within you. You can never lose it, and it cannot leave you. It is not dependent on some other body, some external form.
To be free of time is to be free of the psychological need of past for your identity and future for your fulfillment
Thinking is only a small aspect of consciousness. Thought cannot exist without consciousness, but consciousness does not need thought
Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it.
Love, joy, and peace cannot flourish until you have freed yourself from mind dominance.
Ignore reality, there's nothing you can do about it.
Power over others is weakness disguised as strength.
Always say “yes” to the present moment. What could be more futile, more insane, than to create inner resistance to what already is? what could be more insane than to oppose life itself, which is now and always now? Surrender to what is. Say “yes” to life — and see how life suddenly starts working for you rather than against you.
[Relationships] do not cause pain and unhappiness. They bring out the pain and unhappiness that is already in you
What a liberation to realize that the 'voice in my head' is not who I am. 'Who am I, then?' The one who sees that.
