True Unity
Existing as though you are not, living as though you are not there at all: hollow and empty - pure, empty space - that is when one says, "Let Thy will be done. Let Thy will be done. Let Thy will be done." That is true unity between the little small mind and the infinite mind, the cosmic mind, the universal mind
upanishad
Sitting close to the Master---that is "Upanishad"--- you catch on to many things. You catch on to the inexpressible. You catch on something that is indescribable.
Expressing Love
When we express love too much, then also it disappears, dies out. It's like when you keep the seed on the surface of the soil, not a little deep inside, it doesn't grow.
Aversions
Your taste is nothing that cannot be changed. Your aversions are that which bind you, which robs the freedom from you. Stand back and look at them.
Beyond Logic
The solution exists before the problem...The Light works beyond logic. Answers come from unexpected places. But the solution exists. .. from Kabbalah
The Human Body
There is hope for every soul, for every human being, to live unconditional love. That is why human body is so precious---because in this body you have the ability to erase all the unwanted negative impressions.
Feverishness blocks love
Desire is that feverishness which blocks the mind. As long as there is feverishness, there is no Love
Feverishness and Creativity
When feverishness clogs your head, your mind is not clear; a poetry cannot dawn on that. If there is feverishness, any creative thought will not come
Desire is a product of sleep
Every desire arises from the sleeping state. Desire is a product of
sleep, unconsciousness. Just sleep itself cannot produce desire, but
something along with sleep. A spark of beauty, just a spark of beauty
in the unconsciousness, creates desire.

God Loves Fun
Nature loves to give you surprises. God loves fun. He always gives you surprises---sometimes pleasant, sometimes unpleasant. And you grow by unpleasant as well as by pleasant. In fact you grow much more by unpleasant surprises than the pleasant ones.
memory
What has happened in our memory, in our mind? A memory or an event getting connected to emotion, getting connected to a sensation---this becomes a cycle.
False Promises
This is the nature of sense objects: they promise pleasure to begin with and even give you also a little taste, but then leave you with pain and suffering.
Mysteries of the world
The mysteries of this world can never be fully unfolded. The more you unfold it, the more mysterious it becomes. And that is why it is beautiful.
Linking enthusiasm to things
When you link your enthusiasm to any thing, then when the object of enthusiasm changes or moves, your enthusiasm also dies. Do you see this?
Repose
Desire is hustle and bustle. Desire is agitation, activity. When all that is dropped: peaceful reposing in the innermost core of your Being. Repose---as though you are finished, dead, gone.
missing the boat
Behind every misery, there is a hope. The fuel for miserable people is hope... Foreseeing happiness sometime in the future, makes one miserable right now. Having desire for some pleasure in the future, either in the world or in heaven, one misses the boat.
Arms Open
Stand there with your arms open and say, "What storms may come--let them. I am here." You grow out of them. You become bigger.
committed to truth
A person who is committed to truth---who is committed to what is, this presence of Being---for him success comes easily, follows. Not that he will not encounter failures. He may encounter failures, but he will again act.
when something bothers you
When something bothers you too much in the mind, you want to talk. This is in between. I tell you, when something bothers you in the mind, get into action---work. You will see that gives a bigger relief.
What restricts us
We have a set idea about ourself, set concept about ourself, about our likes and dislikes, about our abilities and disabilities, about our own nature. This is what really restricts us. This is what makes us unhappy.
Take life as a play
Take life not serious. If you take life very serious, then you are bound to be disturbed. The only way you can maintain your equanimity is to take it as a play, as a game, and not take anything too serious.
