“You think, you become that thought. And consciousness, or the state of pure awareness, is lost.”

Truth does not need argument, agreement, theories or beliefs. There is only one test for it and that is to ask yourself ‘Is the statement true or false in my experience?’

The whole purpose of existence is to bring love into existence where it is needed.

To experience beauty, love, truth and peace, or God, your mind has to be stilled.

You can only get next to God through the effort of preparation. To experience the uncreated, the state of awareness will have to be held for several minutes. You are then between time and the time-less – waiting for the unknown, which will come but cannot be willed.

You must not believe anyone in the search for truth; you have to find out for yourself. But although you are on your own, help will come when it is really needed.

Nothing is true in self-discovery unless it is true in your own experience. This is the only protection against the robot levels of the mind.

Truth cannot be taught but it is quickly recognised by the person ready to discover it.

We can rarely see things from the point of view of another person because we look at the facts through the screen of an impression or an interest which distorts our view; and then there are accusations, quarrels and misunderstandin.

The only way we can ever get through to the truth is by finding out what we are not. We do that by looking, by observation.

Feelings are constantly changing. None is dependable for long. You can love someone intensely today, and tomorrow or next month not feel a thing. Except perhaps for the feeling of doubt or depression that what was so beautiful could change so quickly.

Any product of the mind is a reaction of the past, a synthesis of what is old.

Love is the state of enlightenment and enlightenment is the state of love. You can’t make any separation between them. Enlightenment is the state of no feelings and pure knowledge and so is love.

Love is all around you like the air, and is the very breath of your being.

Anything that is said is not the truth. It is a statement of truth, and no statement is the truth.

Acknowledgement is the only way to keep love alive.

WE HAVE SEEN that hunger and breathing are desires of the body. There are other desires that are not of the body, but again man seldom pauses to observe these desires in himself.

Serving the emerging whole means paying attention to what’s right here within my awareness, what’s completely local, and surrendering to what’s being asked of me now.

Many leadership problems are driven by low self-awareness.

Let everything be a confirmation of Awareness.

An awareness of one’s mortality can lead you to wake up and live an authentic, meaningful life.

And I think there is a growing awareness of this among Christians and among Jews, and even to some extent to some Muslims. That’s happening for obvious reasons.

You are the best friend you will ever have. In the presence of your true self you will become the most peaceful, the most relaxed, the most natural person possible.

Awareness must be like the rays of the sun: extending everywhere, illuminating all.

Its not about learning to trust. Its about learning what it is I place my trust in and why. Its like learning to see the forest for the trees. You cannot see the forest for the trees unless you are outside the forest.
