Within each of us there is a silence as vast as the universe.
We long for it.
We can return to it.

Your progress with God

You will have peace to the extent that you have God, and the further you are away from God the less you will be at peace…
Thus you may measure your progress with God by measuring your peace or the lack of it.

Don’t sit still

Definitely don’t sit still.

Do not grasp it

How shall I grasp it?

Do not grasp it.
That which remains when there is no more grasping is the Self.

Nobody can hurt me

Nobody can hurt me without my permission.

The willow is green;
flowers are red.
