All the things that truly matter, beauty, love, creativity, joy, and inner peace arise from beyond the mind.

Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. Always work with it, not against it.

Always say 'yes' to the present moment. What could be more futile, more insane, than to create inner resistance to something that already is.

The present moment is sometimes unacceptable, unpleasant, or awful.

Deal with the past on the level of the present. The more attention you give to the past, the more you energize it, and the more likely you are to make a 'self' out o it.

People don't realize that now is all there ever is there is no past or future except as memory or anticipation in your mind.

Recognize the ego for what it is: a collective dysfunction, the insanity of the human mind.

In today's rush, we all think too much — seek too much — want too much — and forget about the joy of just being.

Wherever you are, be there totally.

Wake up. Get out of your mind. Be present.
