A religion of relationships is a religion of exile.

Our actual ultimate root is in our humanity, not in our geneology.

We are all Christs and don't realize it.

If you fix on yourself and your tradition, believing you alone have got "It," you've removed yourself from the rest of mankind.

The goal of life is to make your heartbeat match the beat of the universe, to match your nature with Nature.

The warrior's approach is to say "yes" to life: "yea to all."

Love informs the whole universe right down to the abyss of hell.

God is not an illusion, but a symbol pointing beyond itself to the realization of the mystery of at-one-ment.

As an adult, you must rediscover the moving power of your life. Tension, a lack of honesty, and a sense of unreality come from following the wrong force in your life.

Work begins when you don't like what you are doing.

Life will always be sorrowful. We can't change it, but we can change our attitude toward it.

Wisdom and foolishness are practically the same. Both are indifferent to the opinions of the world.

You must return with the bliss and integrate it.

The return is seeing the radiance everywhere.

Your real duty is to go away from the community and find your real bliss.

The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.

Out of perfection nothing can be made. Every process involves breaking something up. The earth must be broken to bring for life. If the seed does not die, there is no plant. Bread results from the death of wheat. Life lives on lives. Our own life lives on the acts of other people. If you are lifeworthy, you can take it. What we are really living for is the experience of life, both pain and pleasure. The world is a match for us. We are a match for the world.

Eternity is a dimension of here and now.

The divine lives within you.

The person of noble heart acts spontaneously and will avoid the wasteland, the world of "Thou Shalt".
