“Just because you are seeing divine light, experiencing waves of bliss, or conversing with Gods and Goddesses is no reason to not know your zip code.”

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.

Emotions are like waves. Watch them disappear in the distance on the vast calm ocean.

All of a sudden the progress will stop one day, and you will find yourself, as it were, stranded. Persevere. All progress proceeds by such rise and fall. —Vivekananda

We are all affecting the world every moment, whether we mean to or not. Our actions and states of mind matter, because we are so deeply interconnected with one another.

I would like my life to be a statement of love and compassion–and where it isn’t, that’s where my work lies.

Suffering is the sandpaper of our incarnation. It does its work of shaping us.

Free yourself from the illusion of good and bad days. Labeling time makes us nostalgic of the past and demanding of the future. There is only here and now. Let it be.

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

Working on our own consciousness is the most important thing that we are doing at any moment, and being love is a supreme creative act.

Certain things in life simply have to be experienced -and never explained. Love is such a thing.

I live in my deepest hell and from there I cannot fall any further.

Experience has taught us, that men will not adopt and carry into execution measures best calculated for their own good, without the intervention of a coercive power.

In order to know the light, we must first experience the darkness.

If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability.

Experience will guide us to the rules. You cannot make rules precede practical experience.

We learn from experience that men never learn anything from experience.

Experience is a truer guide than the words of others.
