Wherever you are, you are One with the clouds and One with the Sun and the Stars you see. You are One with everything. That is more true than I can say, and more true than you can hear... #ShunryuSuzuki

What you see in this world is only you. You can never see anything but that. Everywhere you look there is yourself If you are in trouble you will see trouble everywhere If you are at peace with yourself, you will see peace everywhere You are the cause and creator of your particular world and you have the power to change it by turning inward and not reacting to the things of this world. Think about it. #robertadams

I see a painter painting a picture. The picture I call the world, the painter I call God. I am neither. I do not create, nor am I created. I contain all, nothing contains me. #SriNisargdattaMaharaj

Watch your thoughts like you watch street traffic People come and go; you record no response. It might not be easy at first, but with a little practice you’ll find out that your mind can function on multiple levels at once And you can be aware of them all. Its only when you're invested in a particular level, that your attention is captured on it and you lose consciousness on other levels. Even so, activity on unconscious levels continues, out of the field of conscience. Don't struggle with your memories and thoughts; just try to include other important issues in your area of attention, like "Who am I?" ", ''How was I born ? ", Where did this universe come from? ", " What is real and what is momentary? ". No memory will last if you lose interest in it, it is the emotional connection that perpetuates slavery. #srinisargadattamaharaj

God doesn't take us at our word. He looks deep into our hearts. It is not the ceremonies or rituals that make a difference, but whether our hearts are sufficiently pure or not. #ShamsTabrizi

When somehow in your heart you have chosen that this life is for freedom, this life is for Truth, then great power comes to support you. #Mooji

You have tried it the hard way ... now try it the heart's way, the effortless way, for a while. #Mooji

O mind, it is not wise for you to come out lin the form of thoughts]; it is best to go within. Hide yourself deep within the Heart and escape from the tricks of Maya, who tries to upset you by drawing you outwards. #SriRamanaMaharshi

How to get rid of the mind? Is it the mind that wants to kill itself? The mind cannot kill itself. So your business is to find the real nature of the mind. Then you will know that there is no mind. When the Self is sought, the mind is nowhere. Abiding in the Self, one need not worry about the mind. #SriRamanaMaharshi

Reality must be always real. It is not with forms and names. That which underlies these is the Reality. It underlies limitations, being itself limitless. It is not bound. It underlies unrealities, itself being real. Reality is that which is. It is as it is. It transcends speech, beyond the expressions, e.g., existence, non-existence, etc. #SriRamanaMaharshi

Having known for certain that everything which is seen, without the least exception, is merely dream, and that it [the seen] does not exist without the seer, turn only towards Self-Sat- Chit- Ananda without attending to the world of names and forms, which is only a mental conception! #SriRamanaMaharshi

The only worthy occupation is to thoroughly absorb the ego by turning Selfward and, without allowing it to rise, to thus abide quietly, like a waveless ocean, in Self-Knowledge, having annihilated the delusive mind-ghost, which had been wandering about unobstructed. #SriRamanaMaharshi

The greatest obstacle to enlightenment is getting past your delusion that you are not already enlightened. #SriRamanaMaharshi

The solution to your problem is to see who has it. #SriRamanaMaharshi

We are born from a quiet sleep, and we die to a calm awakening. #ChuangTzu

Right now, even as deluded thoughts arise, your awareness of the arising of deluded thoughts is not deluded. This is exactly the Buddha. There is no other. Put a complete stop to the arising of concepts, and you will have a slight chance of sudden awakening to the truth. #HuangPo

Love is the goal, life is the journey. #Osho

If you suffer, it is because of you. If you feel blissful, it is because of you. Nobody else is responsible - only you and you alone. You are your hell and your heaven too. #Osho
