“When we’re identified with Awareness, we’re no longer living in a world of polarities. Everything is present at the same time.”

Only that in you which is me can hear what I’m saying.

In most of our human relationships, we spend much of our time reassuring one another that our costumes of identity are on straight.

Don’t think about the past. Just be here now.

What you meet in another being is the projection of your own level of evolution.

Our interactions with one another reflect a dance between love and fear.

Every religion is the product of the conceptual mind attempting to describe the mystery.

Do what you can on this plane to relieve suffering by constantly working on yourself to be an instrument for the cessation of suffering. To me, that’s what the emerging game is all about.

Your problem is you are too busy holding on to your unworthiness.

The freer I get, the higher I go. The higher I go, the more I see. The more I see, the less I know. The less I know, the more I’m free.

Our journey is about being more deeply involved in Life and yet less attached to it.

You have to identify what you care about and why you care about it. It has to be personal. It has to be something that fires you up or means something to you, or it’s not going to drive you.

Among her many accomplishments, my mother is often identified as the leader of the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday movement.

It’s not always easy to identify your own voice. It comes with time.
