Tell the Truth

Always tell the truth.

Neem Karoli Baba  (Maharaj-ji)

The Deeper You Go

The deeper you go,
the less you know,
the more you are.

Cease to React

If you are willing to look at another person's behavior
toward you as a reflection of the state of their relationship
with themselves rather than a statement about your value
as a person, then you will, over a period of time,
cease to react at all.

Yogi Bhajan

How Can He Teach What He Isn't?

Maharaj-ji:   Does your teacher have desires?
Ram Dass:    Yes, but he told me not to have desires.
Maharaj-ji:   Do you have desires?
Ram Dass:    Yes.
Maharaj-ji:   Then he didn't teach you.
                          How can he teach what he isn't?

Pointing Us to Our Freedom

Our parents, our children, our spouses,
and our friends will continue to press
every button we have, until we realize
what it is that we don't want to know
about ourselves, yet. They will point
us to our freedom every time.

Byron Katie

It Has To Be You

Peace doesn't require two people;
it requires only one.
It has to be you.
The problem begins and ends there.

Truth vs. Consistency

I am not at all concerned
with appearing to be consistent.
In my pursuit after Truth
I have discarded many ideas
and learned many new things.

Mahatma Gandhi
