"Surrender to what is, and say with a whole heart: this is where I want to be."

"When you listen to someone with your whole being, healing happens."

"The feeling of being separate is the source of all fear."

"You are not in the world; the world is in you."

"Joy is the dynamic aspect of Being. Stillness is the static aspect of Being."

"Patience is the realization that time is necessary."

"Your body and your mind are not separate from the universe. They are expressions of the universe."

"Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, unless it agrees with your own reason and experience."

"The greatest revolution of our time is not technological but spiritual."

"Pain is essential. Suffering is optional."

"To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance."

"Flowing water never goes stale, so you need to keep moving."

"What we resist persists. What we befriend, we transcend."

"The present moment is the only moment available to us, and it is the door to all moments."

"Your outer world reflects your inner world."

"You do not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious."

"The mind loves the known. It is afraid of the unknown."

"Spiritual practice is not about becoming someone different, but about becoming who you already are."

"The quality of your presence determines the quality of your reality."

"When you realize that you are not present, you are present."

"The past is in your mind, the future is in your mind. The only thing that is real is the present moment."

"Hurt is the price of growth."

"The whole is in every part. The universe is in every atom."

"Being is the eternal, ever-present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are constantly changing."

"You cannot live without time, but you cannot truly live with it either."

"The miracle is not that you are healing, but that you were able to see your own wholeness."

"Stress is caused by being 'here' but wanting to be 'there'."

"Consciousness is emerging from the pages of human history like a butterfly breaking free from its chrysalis."

"Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it yourself."
