Meditation is the only activity that doesn’t add anything to the picture.  It is a totally nonviolent, nonaggressive practice.  Not filling the space, allowing for the possibility of connecting with unconditional openness; this practice provides the basis for real change.

We crave entertainment; events do not even have to be actual.  True reality lies in withdrawing from the swirling variations of the outside world.  Look within and slowly peel away the layers of subjectivity, then our minds will cease their habits of creating stimulating realities.

Shining the light on yourself will never boost your eminence.  Being self-righteous precludes you from being right.  Parading yourself parodies leadership.  Boasting about yourself will never boost your eminence.  Avoid the cultivation of all these ego-bloated voids.

When inner worth mounts with great force, there is danger that when this force comes to power you may forget to ask what is right and, being intent on movement, may not wait for the right time.  Great power and force must be indissolubly united with what is right.

Quote: Logic will get you from A to Z; imagination will get you everywhere.  Albert Einstein
