“Love, oneness, is no separation between you and life. It is a progressive letting go, a progressive not fault finding.”

Fear is finding fault with the future.

How many times have you tried to solve “the problem”? you’ll be trying to solve it not just until you die but for many more lifetimes. .

Love is not liking somebody. Anyone can do that. Love is loving things that sometimes you don’t like.

When life is good do not take it for granted as it will pass.

Why seek revenge? Karma is going to get the bastards anyway

Everyone makes mistakes. The wise are not people who never make mistakes, but those who forgive themselves and learn from their mistakes.

Our modern Western culture only recognises the first of these, freedom of desires.

Life is what’s happening while you’re worrying.

Silence is so much more productive of wisdom and clarity in thinking.

Understand the place of love in a spiritual life. A powerful and blissful type of love has no conditions, no ownership and no people involved. Be free from fear. Be who you are. That is love.

My first meditation teacher told me that there is no such thing as a bad meditation. He was right. During the difficult meditations you build up your strength, which creates meditation for peace.

Be mindful, be compassionate and nurture the circumstances that find you in this good time so it will last longer.

The secret of life is… everything is out of control.

Peace is the most valuable commodity. And it’s free!

One who deceives will always find those who allow themselves to be deceived.

The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as you can. Strike him as hard as you can, and keep moving on.

Men are so simple and yield so readily to the desires of the moment that he who will trick will always find another who will suffer to be tricked.

I’m tough when I have to be, tender when I should be. When you find a really tough guy, he’s not a predator. He doesn’t have to prove himself.

We seldom find people ungrateful so long as it is thought we can serve them.

An aim in life is the only fortune worth finding.

All speech, written or spoken, is a dead language, until it finds a willing and prepared hearer.

A lot of people can find something to laugh at in my humor, I guess.
