This is the real secret of lifeto be completely engaged with what you are doing

in the here and now. And instead of calling it work, realize it is play.

The actual trouble is that profit is identified entirely with money, as distinct from
the real profit of living with dignity and elegance in beautiful surroundings.

Before you were born there was this same nothing-at-all-forever. And yet you
happened. And if you happened once, you can happen again.

Everybody is you. Everybody is I. Thats our name. We all share that.

For eternally and always there is only now, one and the same now; the present is
the only thing that has no end.

There is no such thing as a single, solitary event. The only possible single event is
all events whatsoever. That could be regarded as the only possible atom; the only
possible single thing is everything.

People who exude love are apt to give things away. They are in every way like
rivers; they stream. And so when they collect possessions, and things they like,
they are apt to give them to other people. Because, have you ever noticed that
when you start giving things away, you keep getting more?

We need to recognize the physical reality of relationship between organisms as


having as much substance as the organisms themselves, if not more.

In the more intimate sphere of personal life, the problem is the pain of trying to
avoid suffering and the fear of trying not to be afraid.

We love to see a child lost in the dance and not performing for an audience. To be
happy and know that you are happy is really the overflowing cup of life. To dance
as if there was no audience.

Your soul is not in your body; your body is in your soul.

Tomorrow never comes.

Reality itself is gorgeous. It is the plenum; the fullness of total joy.

Because we cannot relate to the sensuous and material present we are most
happy when good things are expected to happen, not when they are happening.

There is no such thing as the truth that can be stated. In other words, ask the
question: What is the true position of the stars in the Big Dipper? Well it
depends on where youre looking at them from.

The hills are moving into their stillness. They mean something because they are
being transformed into my brain, and my brain is an organ of meaning.

Not picking and choosing doesnt mean that you have to cultivate being detached.
You can try that, sure. But then you find youre terribly attached to your nonattachment. Like youre proud of your humility.

You hear the sound of water And thats quite as important as anything Ive got
to say.

Money is an abstraction. It cannot, of itself, buy any pleasure whatsoever.


Because all pleasures involve skill and love.

I am looking at the world, not confronting it; I am knowing it by a continuous


process of transforming it into myself, so that everything around me, the whole
globe of space, no longer feels away from me but in the middle.

Light is a relationship between electrical energy and eyeballs. It is you, in other


words, who evoke the world and you evoke the world in accordance with what
kind of a you you are.

Thoughts, ideas, and words are coins for real things. They are not those things,
and though they represent them, there are many ways in which they do not
correspond at all. As with money and wealth, so with thoughts and things; ideas
and words are more or less fixed, whereas real things change.

Transiency is a mark of spirituality. A lot of people think the opposite that the
spiritual things are the everlasting things. But, you see, the more a things tends
to be permanent, the more it tends to be lifeless.

Weve run into a cultural situation where weve confused the symbol with the
physical reality; the money with the wealth; and the menu with the dinner. And
were starving on eating menus.

The ego is a kind of flip, a knowing of knowing, a fearing of fearing. Its a curlicue,
an extra jazz to experience, a sort of double-take or reverberation, a dithering of
consciousness which is the same as anxiety.

When you look out of your eyes, at nature happening out there, youre looking at
you. Thats the real you. The you that goes on of itself.

If we came to our senses, we would be aware of ourselves not as only on the


inside of our skins But we would be aware that the outside is us too.

The word person comes from the latin word persona which referred to the
masks worn by actors in which sound would come through. The person is the
maskthe role youre playing. And all of your friends and relations and teachers
are busy telling you who you are and what your role in life is.

Light is an inseparable trinity of sun, object, and eye.

This very moment, this very world, this very body is the point. Now. You see? But,
if youre seeking something beyond all the time, you never get with it. Youre
never here.

Supposing you knew the future and could control it perfectly, what would you do?
Youd say: Lets shuffle the deck and have another deal.

You cant live at all unless you can live fully now.

Thus the conventional saint and the conventional sinner, the ascetic and the
sensualist, the metaphysician and the materialist may have so much in common
that their opposition is quite trivial. Like alternating heat and cold, they may be
symptoms of the same fever.

It is as necessary to have air, water, plants, insects, birds, fish, and mammals as it
is to have brains, hearts, lungs, and stomachs. The former are our external
organs in the same way that the latter are our internal organs.

This is where the world begins. Only youre not doing it by straining. A you
deeper than the straining you is doing all of this. The same you that is growing
your hair, coloring your eyes, and making your thumbprints. You dont think about
it. You dont strain muscles to do it. But that is what is creating the world.

Education, in the real sense, is not preparation for life, it is actually living. And
doing it now and realizing that the point of the process in which the child is
engages, is not to prepare the child for the future, but to enjoy doing the thing
today.

Your ego has about as much control over what goes on as a child sitting next to
his father in a car with a plastic steering wheel.

Thought is a means of concealing truth, despite the fact that its an


extraordinarily useful faculty.

When you know that you have to go with the river, suddenly you acquirebehind
everything that you dothe power of the river.

We are all floating in a tremendous river and the river carries you along. Some of
the people in the river are swimming against the current, but they are still being
carried along. Others have learned that the art of the thing is to swim with it. You
have to flow with the river. There is no other way. You can swim against it, and
pretend not to be flowing with it. But you still flow with the river.

Life is just a chance to grow a soul. Powel Davies

There are no traffic jams along the extra mile. Roger Staubach

Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs. Farrah Gray

It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop. Confucius

The pain you feel today is the strength you feel tomorrow. For every challenge encountered
there is opportunity for growth.

I dont regret the things Ive done, I regret the things I didnt do when I had the chance.

Challenges are what make life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life
meaningful.

Good things come to those who wait greater things come to those who get off their ass
and do anything to make it happen.
