Meditation is wondering. It is both wondering and wonder.
Meditation is the art of life. Meditation is not simply a practice. It is an experience, awareness, and a way of perceiving life.
Meditation is essential because meditation opens the mind to itself.
Meditation is a bright, hopeful practice in which we learn to make our mind quiet so that the infinite, perfect light of enlightenment can flow through us.
If you're a person who just wants to be in the world and doesn't want any knowledge, then I don't know what you are doing with this tape. Turn it off immediately.
One day you will arrive at a station on the train of existence that you've always known has been there. You'll find there will be no train in sight, with no sense of arrival. There is only a perpetual arrival, a timeless condition of infinite awareness.
Be still, Be joyous, Celebrate creation, preservation and destruction; For these are the seasons of your life: Of your knowing and being.
You are not what you seem to be. You are one of God's endless dreams in search of wakefulness. Meditation is wakefulness.
Don't run away from the world. The world is God. Don't run towards the world. God is the void. Don't be afraid of the complexities of this life, nor the stark simplicity of death.
The surface personality is only the beginning of what we are. So as we meditate, we still that surface personality, we can see beyond it, and we see that we encompass multitudes.
There's no difference between winning and losing. They are the same type of experience. Winning and losing are sensorial, affixed to an ego, blocked in time and space and none of them ultimately make you happy very long
These are the mysterious ways of knowledge, power and enlightenment. I can only allude to them in words. I cannot possibly explain what this process is like.
We have the possibility of being far removed from what we are, of beginning to taste it and feel it. That is direct knowledge. That is truth. Anything else is mere words.
How strange it is to be human. For a short moment we are conscious of the glories of life then we become silent again. Perhaps there is more. Look more deeply into the matter.
Everything we see is an illusion. Even our perceptions of truth are illusory, illusory in the sense they're not complete.
I offer you the possibilities of immortality, a pathway that leads beyond the known and the unknown, few follow it.
It's not logical, self-realization. If it was, everybody would be self-realized because everybody is logical.
Enlightenment is already there inside us and all things. All we have to do is get something out of the way that is causing us not to see that.
Meditation is the pathway to enlightenment, and I would encourage you to follow that pathway as far as you can, into ecstasy.
There is an alternative. It's an old alternative. It's not for everybody. It's only for people who are smart, limited market. It's enlightenment.
We sit here on the oasis of human consciousness and the verbal plane trying to talk about something that we just have to go and see and do and feel.
Knowledge comes from personal experience of truth and awareness, not from conversation.
When your life becomes clear and pure, when your mind is clear and your view of life is unobstructed, then you'll be at peace with yourself. Then you will be happy.
When your consciousness expands you are in a world, literally, of light. You live in a world of light where nothing is solid. You don't have to be enlightened to have this experience. You just have to start the inner journey.
If you know that you have had countless lives, then what happens in this life is not quite as traumatic.
