The possibilities for immortality are endless. Here you sit reading these words, a butterfly resting on a flower!
Life is perfect, it glows.
Life is beautiful all of the time. Just to be alive and perceive that beauty of life all around you and within you is the best that there is.
Life has no meaning. It doesn't need a meaning. A meaning is an arbitrary thought formulation that we affix to it because we are in the mood. Life is its own raison d'etre.
Life is magic.
OK, you're alive. How aware are you, of anything? Can you see eternity? Do you live in the land of the perpetually happy?
A long time ago individuals looked at life and saw that most people aren't happy. They saw this was obviously an inefficient system. So they combed the universe and found immeasurable happiness inside of us, our spirits.
We are luminous beings. Beneath our transient physical bodies we are made of intelligent light.
Self-realization is the last game on earth worth playing.
The last game on earth is in progress. And when you lose, you win. And when you win, you can't lose.
Wisdom is something that seeks itself. The wiser you become the more you'd like to know.
We live in a world of wars and wars alarms, of famines, of oppression. While there are many wonderful people in this world, you'll notice one curious fact about them, they all suffer, they all die, and sometimes those who are the nicest seem to suffer the most.
How can you possibly overcome your fears, doubts, worries and other problems? You can’t. You simply don’t have the capacity. Fortunately, the infinite can do all of these things for you. How? Because it is lacking in nothing.
You have elected to follow this path you do not know. You have elected to follow the path because eternity has elected you. You will follow it is as long as eternity holds you to it.
The most noble of all pursuits is to be enlightened, to know truth, to have knowledge and yet be beyond even truth and knowledge, to be God.
It's fun to go to a supermarket or a park or a shopping mall where human beings convene. They're so caught up in their own personal reality as to not see life, except in terms that add to or detract from their movie.
There's a different film being made in every mind. And of course, the star of the film is the mind, the personality, the self.
You're bound by the frame. You've become so engrossed in the movie of your life that you have forgotten that you're sitting there watching.
Pass the popcorn, please. Life is a film, theatre, a theatre of the soul. We play different roles on different stages. At death, we walk offstage. At birth, we walk onstage.
Your existence is passing before you. Grains of sand in the hourglass. The Wicked Witch of the West has you in her castle and she's turned the hourglass over and the sand is running through. Will you be liberated or will you die? The only way you can beat death is liberation.
Things don't make you unhappy. People don't make you unhappy. You make yourself unhappy. Because you are in the cycle. You're stuck. You're stuck in time.
You see, I'm a believer in the rhapsodic. I like things that are happy. For no particular reason, I just like them. Most people don't seem to be like that in this particular place, in this world. You can tell by what they focus on. Read a newspaper, watch a TV show, go to a movie, look at a life.
Well, what is God, then? God is that which watches. God is neither masculine nor feminine, although God can assume any form. God is that eternal reality that is in everything.
Go through the things that life gives you to go through, happily. You have to loosen the grip of time, gradually.
You should be drawing awareness from a deeper part of your being. Your deeper mind has everything already. It knows everything already. It has all the answers.
The trick in life is to find out where you belong. Once you find out where you belong, you will be happy there.
The ghetto is not where you live. The ghetto is inside your mind. And anyone who tells you that you can't get out of the ghettos of your own mind has no idea what they're talking about.
The key to happiness, in my opinion, is taking the time to find out what your spirit wants you to do, and doing it.
Real happiness is something most people never know. What we experience in deep meditation, that ecstasy, is beyond what human beings call happiness.
To overcome stress you have to find out something. You've got to do some research and homework. You need to find out who you are today.
If you were just you, you would be happy. But of course, you don't know who or what you are. So how can you possibly be happy? That is why you have got to study Zen...or something.
Our purpose in life is to gain the view of ourselves. Otherwise, why live? We never know the miracle of existence.
