Life has its own hidden forces which you can only discover by living.
-Søren Kierkegaard
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.
Under the influence of false ego one thinks himself to be the doer of activities, while in reality all activities are carried out by nature as a natural process.
It is wise to direct your anger towards problems -- not people; to focus your energies on answers -- not excuses.
-William Arthur Ward
You say: “He lost his life” or “my life”, as if life were something that you can possess or lose. The truth is: you don’t have a life, you are life. The One Life, the one consciousness that pervades the entire universe and takes temporary form to experience itself as a stone or blade of grass, as an animal, a person, a star or a galaxy.
Character isn't something you were born with and can't change, like your fingerprints. It's something you weren't born with and must take responsibility for forming.
-Jim Rohn
There is nothing that wastes the body like worry, and one who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever.
-Mahatma Gandhi
