“It is not a question of whether you ‘have what it takes,’ but of whether you take the gifts you have – they are plenteous – and share them with all the world.”

Do not limit the shape and size in which your miracle can come. Sometimes the smallest keys turn the biggest locks.

Miracles seldom occur in the lives of those who do not consider them possible.

The purpose of meditation is to create focus. It is about focusing your attention on your experience. The reason for focus: it allows you to be here now. Your only reality is This Moment, right here, right now. Peace is found in such awareness.

Earthly possessions are not what you came here to gather. Do not worry about your earthly possessions. Place your attention on your heavenly goal – the evolution of your soul – and you will find peace even while on earth.

Give everyone whose life you touch a sense of their own worthiness as a person, a sense of the true wonder of who they are. Give this gift and you will heal the world.

The new spirituality is that it will produce an experience in human encounters in which we become a living demonstration of the basic spiritual teaching ‘We are all one.’

Accept what you are able to do and what you are not able to do. Accept the past as past, without denying it or discarding it. Learn to forgive yourself and to forgive others. Don’t assume that it’s too late to get involved.

You really have to be satisfied with what you are and accept from life what it still very generously offers you – and notice it, and be glad for it.
