“The mind usually says, “I know, I know, I know.” But the “don’t-know mind” is where wisdom lives.”

If people are living their lives for security and comfort and pleasure, then mind’s every waking moment will be plotting those things. That’s how it stays identified – as a body, as a you.

It’s quite an amazing experience to see the same life with and without the thought. We come to see how crazy a thought can make us when we believe it.

We may appear to be mean but we’re really only frightened.

Spare yourself from seeking love, approval, or appreciation-from anyone. And watch what happens in reality, just for fun.

I have had the privilege of losing everything.

God, as I use the word, is another name for what is. I always know God’s intention: It’s exactly what is in every moment.

I have never experienced a stressful feeling that wasn’t caused by attaching to an untrue thought. Behind every uncomfortable feeling, there’s a thought that isn’t true for us.

The mind’s job is to validate what it thinks.

If I want something, I go get it. Anything that I believe will stop me, I question.

There’s no nightmare you can’t wake yourself up from.

The world is what you believe it to be, and it changes as you change.

Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you.

To exclude anything that appears in your universe is not love. Love joins with everything. It doesn’t exclude the monster. It doesn’t avoid the nightmare – it looks forward to it.

It’s not the problem that causes our suffering; it’s our thinking about the problem.

We begin to not be human, as we’ve known it, any longer. But to be just creative minds and action, whereas right now we’re confused minds and actions, and our environment mirrors that back to us.

It makes sense that no one else can cause you pain. That’s your job.

Heathenism is a state of mind. You can take it that I’m referring to one who does not see his world. He has no mental light. He destroys almost unwittingly. He cannot feel any Gods presence in his life. He is the 21st century man.

Peace of mind arrives the moment you come to peace with the contents of your mind.

Apt words have power to suage the tumors of a troubled mind.

There’s a starman waiting in the sky, he’d like to come and meet us, but he thinks he’d blow our minds.

Happiness is a state of mind, a choice, a way of living; it is not something to be achieved, it is something to be experienced.

Out of suffering comes the serious mind; out of salvation, the grateful heart; out of endurance, fortitude; out of deliverance faith. Patient endurance attends to all things.

The two wings of mindfulness and kindness will begin to open the heart to more connection with our world.

A goodly number of scientists are not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
