The guru cannot awaken you; all that he can do is to point out what is. The guru can give you words; he can give you an explanation, the symbols of the mind, but the symbol is not the real, and if you are caught in the symbol, you will never find the way.
The empires of the future are the empires of the mind.
All wrongdoing arises because of mind. If mind is transformed can wrongdoing remain?
Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.
Don’t let your mind bully your body into believing it must carry the burden of its worries.
Slowly and steadily cleanse the mind; sharpen the intellect, purify the senses, and win grace.
If the mind becomes balanced and detached, and comes to dwell in its own true home, imbued with the love of God, then it enjoys the essence of supreme spiritual wisdom; it shall never feel hunger again.
