There is a notion that existence is an illusion. Existence is not an illusion. Existence is a projection from the inner through the brain producing the outer sensory world of what is – an amazing complete mystery.

BARRY LONGAcknowledgement is the only way to keep love alive.
BARRY LONGNo religion knows the truth. Only he or she who lives it knows.
BARRY LONGAll is energy and there is no energy higher than right love, which has no object.
BARRY LONGNothing 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.
BARRY LONGLove is all around you like the air, and is the very breath of your being.
BARRY LONGWE 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.
BARRY LONGTruth 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?’
BARRY LONGFeelings 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.
BARRY LONGLove 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.
BARRY LONGThe whole purpose of existence is to bring love into existence where it is needed.
BARRY LONGWhen you observe yourself you must not condemn or approve what you see. If you tell a lie there is no need to judge your-self.
BARRY LONGLove is beyond description; but not beyond demonstrating. Love is beyond the mind because it is always new. Any product of the mind is a reaction of the past, a synthesis of what is old. So the mind is a modifier, a reactor; a renovator, but it cannot create the new.
BARRY LONGTo experience beauty, love, truth and peace, or God, your mind has to be stilled.
BARRY LONGYou can’t realise love or yourself until you are still enough to drop down through the restlessness and frustrations into that deeper level of your being
BARRY LONGNo man can teach another self-knowledge. He can only lead him or her up to self-discovery – the source of truth.
