“If you resist confusion,you are always confused. We think that we resist certain states because they are there, but actually they are there because we resist them.”

Only something as insane as human beings would ever asked themselves if ‘I’m good.’ You don’t find oak trees having existential crisis. ‘I feel so rotten about myself. I don’t produce as much acorns as the one next to me.’

Freedom and Love arise when you die into the unknown mystery of being.

Life sustains itself. Let go of the ego and life takes care of itself through you.

All we really want in the end is to be connected once again with the Truth of our being, to realize what it is that wears this mask of self.

Have you noticed, with whatever quality of love you have experienced, that when true love arises, it opens up both your mind and emotions? It’s an openness to whatever is happening.

What would happen if you were to allow everything to be exactly as it is? If you gave up the need for control, and instead embraced the whole of your experience in each moment that arose?

You think that enlightenment is something other than what is happening right now. This is your primary mistake.

The mind may accept or deny that you are awareness, but either way it can’t really understand. It cannot comprehend. Thought cannot comprehend what is beyond thought.

The Truth is the only thing you’ll ever run into that has no agenda.

In silence a question has great power, because in silence a question will always lead you deeper into your experience. If there is no grounding in silence, a spiritual question is going to lead you into your mind.

Most people don’t get out of childhood, or adolescence, without being wounded for telling the truth. Someone says ‘you can’t say that’ or ‘you shouldn’t say that’ or ‘that wasn’t appropriate’.

Refuse to disconnect from love and every relationship will be totally transformed; even the relationship with yourself.

All delusions begin in the mind. All delusions are based on various ways we’re talking to ourselves and then believing what we are saying.

Ego is neither positive nor negative. Those are simply concepts that create more boundaries. Ego is just ego, and the disaster of it all is that you, as a spiritual seeker, have been conditioned to think of the ego as bad, as an enemy, as something to be destroyed.

You can’t lose what you serve. That’s the secret. What you serve, you can’t lose. What you don’t serve and what you try to hold onto, you can’t hold onto. It’s always slipping out of your fingers.

It was hard to narrow them down, because I tried to pick songs for the most part that actually did have some effect on me or influenced me in the past.

It is actually important to do songs they’re familiar with. Also, I love those songs. In a way, I think I’ve changed people’s perceptions of what a cabaret show like this could be.

It’s hardly ever done, compared to how often it’s done in other companies, not just Britain. Someone from the Roundabout Theater Company – I said, “You never do Shakespeare.” And he said, “Yes, we’re not very good at it.” And I thought, “What a terrible thing to say.”.

Grown-up love means actually understanding what you love, taking the good with the bad and helping your loved one grow.

The sound is just sound, why should you go and grab it? You see that actually it was you who went out and disturbed the sound.
