“That which is threatening to the ego is liberating to the heart.”

Listening is much more effective than trying to stop thought or cut it off.

You breathe when you walk. You breathe when you stand. You breathe when you lie down.

A trust in the fundamental orderliness of the universe.

There is no way that we can understand it all. So the heart’s response to that mystery is faith.

If you have time to breathe you have time to meditate.

The best way to deal with excessive thinking is to just listen to it, to listen to the mind.

The more intellectual you are, the more egoistic you are, and surrendering becomes more difficult.

A great thing would be done if all these God-visions could embrace and cast themselves into each other; but intellectual dogma and cult egoism stand in the way.

Take no notice of the ego and its activities, but see only the light behind.

Listen to your heart and not your ego. Your ego prompts you to boast of vain assertions to obtain the glory of this world.

By constantly keep one’s attention on the Source, the ego is dissolved in that Source like a salt-doll in the sea.

The “I” thought is said to be the sum total of all thoughts. The source of the “I” thought has to be inquired into.

That is the ego which rises and sinks periodically. But you exist always. That which lies beyond the ego is consciousness – the Self.

Reality is simply the loss of ego. Destroy the ego by seeking its identity. Because the ego is no entity it will automatically vanish and reality will shine forth by itself.
