Acknowledge your thoughts, let them go and come back to the freshness of the present moment.  Doing this, you are sowing seeds of wakefulness in your unconscious.  This will help you let go of your habitual ways of doing things, then you can proceed and do something fresh.

No matter how minor or how great, you must make choices every minute that passes.  Unfortunately, you can never go back and make comparisons or try one way or another.  The irony of life is that it is a one-way journey.  Therefore, only wisdom will suffice to guide you.

Chanting is no more holy than listening to the murmur of a stream or counting prayer beads, no more sacred than simply breathing and religious robes no more spiritual than work clothes.  Just live a quiet and simple life, free of ideas and concepts to attain oneness.

The words and deeds of the past can be used to strengthen and elevate your character.  When you study the past, do not confine yourself to knowledge of history, but apply that knowledge to give actuality to the past by studying and practicing these ancient teachings.

Quote: Things never happen the same way twice.
