“When we believe in our thoughts, when we tell ourselves a story, we suffer. ‘My husband doesn’t respect me.’ ‘I should be thinner.’ Those are stories. When there’s no story, there’s no suffering.”

This is the time. This is the place. This is the vastness. Right here is paradise. Always. Always.

It doesn´t come later. Everything you´re supposed to do is here right now.

It’s for each of us to look at what we really do believe – what our belief system really consists of.

You don’t experience anxiety unless you’re attached to a thought that isn’t true for you. It’s that simple.

No-one can disappoint you, only your thoughts about them can.

We suffer only until we realize that we can’t know anything.

Any stressful thought that you have about the planet, for example, shows you where you are stuck, where your energy is being exhausted in not fully meeting life as it is, without conditions.

Placing the blame or judgment on someone else leaves you powerless to change your experience; taking responsibility for your beliefs and judgments gives you the power to change them.

There is nothing that isn’t true if you believe it; and nothing is true, believe it or not.

Suffering over things that have happened to us is nothing more than an argument with the past.

When you think that someone or something other than yourself needs to change, you’re mentally out of your business.

I’m most inspired whenever I hear of even the smallest act of human kindness.

What would it be like to let go of wanting things to be other than they are?

Thinking that what you want equals what’s best for you is a dead end.

Pay close attention to the particular thoughts you use to deprive yourself of happiness.

I can find only three kinds of business in the Universe: mine, yours, and God’s.
