“Take my hand. We will walk. We will only walk. We will enjoy our walk without thinking of arriving anywhere.”

Life is a miracle, and being aware of simply this can already make us very happy.

The past is gone, the future is not yet here, and if we do not go back to ourselves in the present moment, we cannot be in touch with life.

In true dialogue, both sides are willing to change.

If you love someone but rarely make yourself available to him or her, that is not true love.

The desire to be a free person is very worthwhile. To be free means you are no longer the victim of fear, anger, craving, or suspicion.

At any moment, you have a choice, that either leads you closer to your spirit or further away from it.

Nonviolent action, born of the awareness of suffering and nurtured by love, is the most effective way to confront adversity.

If you think that peace and happiness are somewhere else and you run after them, you will never arrive.

A true partner or friend is one who encourages you to look deep inside yourself for the beauty and love you’ve been seeking.

We have more possibilities available in each moment than we realize.

Enlightenment is always there. Small enlightenment will bring great enlightenment. If you breathe in and are aware that you are alive – that you can touch the miracle of being alive – then that is a kind of enlightenment.

We are here to awaken from our illusion of separateness.

As long as you find something beautiful, good, and true to believe in and abide by, you have the equivalent of God in your life.

You cannot transmit wisdom and insight to another person. The seed is already there. A good teacher touches the seed, allowing it to wake up, to sprout, and to grow.

Every thought you produce, anything you say, any action you do, it bears your signature.

Real love means loving kindness and compassion, the kind of love that does not have any conditions.

To arrive at the simplest truth requires years of contemplation.

The soul takes flight to the world that is invisible but there arriving she is sure of bliss and forever dwells in paradise.

Without your past, you could never have arrived.

How great it is to arrive at home after a day of hard work and be with lovely family.

Love, what a long way, to arrive at a kiss.

Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives.

Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I’m going to be happy in it.

All you have to do is to pay attention; lessons always arrive when you are ready, and if you can read the signs, you will learn everything you need to know in order to take the next step.
