you are one with all

1. Pain is inevitable as long as you are identified with your mind.
    
2. With stillness comes the benediction of Peace.
    
3. I cannot tell you any spiritual truth that deep within you don't know already. All I can do is remind you of what you have forgotten.
    
4. The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future — which, of course, can only be experienced as the Now.
    
5. At the deepest level of Being, you are one with all that is.
    
6. When you lose touch with inner stillness, you lose touch with yourself. When you lose touch with yourself, you lose yourself in the world.
    
7. You cannot find yourself in the past or future. The only place where you can find yourself is in the Now.
    
8. The quicker you are in attaching verbal or mental labels to things, people, or situations, the more shallow and lifeless your reality becomes, and the more deadened you become to reality.
    
9. Most people treat the present moment as if it were an obstacle that they need to overcome. Since the present moment is Life itself, it is an insane way to live.
    
10. Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness.
     
11. Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it.
     
12. Is there a difference between happiness and inner peace? Yes. Happiness depends on conditions being perceived as positive; inner peace does not.
