“Discomfort is the call to set yourself free.”

If our thinking is clear, how could work or money be the problem? Our thinking is all we need to change.

Until we question our stressful thoughts, we remain victims of the images in our head.

There are no physical problems-only mental ones.

Thinking that people are supposed to do or be anything other than what they are is like saying that the tree over there should be the sky. I investigated that and found freedom.

When we believe in our thoughts, when we tell ourselves a story, we suffer. ‘My husband doesn’t respect me.’ ‘I should be thinner.’ Those are stories. When there’s no story, there’s no suffering.

The nature of mind is that it loves everything once it loves itself, just as it opposes everything when it opposes itself.

Peace doesn’t require two people; it requires only one. It has to be you. The problem begins and ends there.

Questioning our stressful thoughts, we come to see they’re not true.

Thoughts are just what is. They appear. They’re innocent. They’re not personal.

I love what I think, and I’m never tempted to believe it.

We’re all looking for love, in our confusion, until we find our way back to the realization that love is what we already are.

When you believe that your problem is caused by someone or something else, you become your own victim.

Happiness is the natural state for someone who knows that there’s nothing to know.

If people are living their lives for security and comfort and pleasure, then mind’s every waking moment will be plotting those things. That’s how it stays identified – as a body, as a you.

It’s quite an amazing experience to see the same life with and without the thought. We come to see how crazy a thought can make us when we believe it.

We may appear to be mean but we’re really only frightened.

Any thought of discomfort or stress is an alarm that lets you know you’re believing an untrue thought.
