Love is the natural condition of all experience before thought has divided it into a multiplicity and diversity of objects, selves and others.

We don’t have to wait for the right circumstances to have happiness.

The greatest discovery in life is to discover that our essential nature does not share the limits nor the destiny of the body and mind.

Looking for happiness in the body, mind or world is like looking for the screen in a movie. The screen doesn’t appear in the movie, and yet, at the same time, all that is seen in the movie is the screen. In the same way that the screen ‘hides’ in plain view, so happiness ‘hides’ in all experience.

Time is the eternal now, seen through the narrow slit of the mind.

When feeling is divested of the feeler and the felt, it shines as love; when seeing is divested of the seer and the seen, it shines as beauty.

We take that which is unreal to be real and that which is real to be unreal.

The mind, the body and the world are made out of Consciousness but Consciousness is not made out of them. It is made out of itself. Therefore everything is made only out of Consciousness.
