Heartbreak Hotel

Sometimes it is disturbing to realize that we’ve been holding onto a pocketful of dreams, but ultimately, it’s liberating. We can let the heart break; it is that big. Illusion never brings peace, never brings happiness. When we’re done being disturbed by our own illusions, then we start to become astonished — astonished that we aren’t just our illusions, that we’re something so vast and unexplainable.

We’re not something that exists within Heaven or even in the great mystery of being, but we actually are the great mystery of being. One Zen master said, “The whole universe is my true personality.” This is a very wonderful saying: “The whole universe is my true personality.” If you want to see what you truly are, open the window, and everything you see is in fact the expression of your inner reality. Can you embrace all of it?

Hiya Gorgeous

You are the emptiness in which even space appears. You are the infinite
perfection. Contemplate Yourself.

Midnight Feast

Each night, this magnificent world, so vivid in the daylight of our consciousness, is swallowed by the mouse of sleep. Yet we have no fear, for secretly, we know we are Beyond.

The Only Miracle

Life is only the perpetual surprise that I exist.

Not Two

In the beginning was only Being,
One without a second.
Out of Himself He brought forth the cosmos
And entered into everything in it.
There is nothing that does not come from Him.
Of everything He is the inmost Self.
He is the truth; He is the Self supreme.  
You are that…you are that.

The Chandogya Upanishad

There is only infinite, eternal Space, which vibrates,
Bringing forth matter and time. 
You are that... in which this arises.

The Wave Structure of Matter

Why do we not dance, knowing our true nature?
'Tis but a thought that separates us from this...

Be Happy

Why are you unhappy? Because 99.9 percent of everything you think and do is for your self - and it doesn't exist.
