Every wise saying that stirs the heart, or helps illuminate the mind, is a kind of Divine seed: each speaks in its own tongue of some timeless chapter and verse, but always hinting of -- and silently pointing to -- the Book of Truth from which it has come.

"To thine own self be true, and surely it must follow as day the night, thou canst not be false to any man." This is an ideal that strikes directly at the heart of human beings. In the setting out to attain this ideal, many people buy books and study courses in order to learn how to be true to oneself. And although the reading of books may be a necessary first step, most of humanity stops the...

Many self-help writers write around the solution to an issue or problem without actually providing any real solution. Do your books actually show a person the way to access "now" and stay there? Why is "now" supposedly the golden key to our true nature?...

Our present experience of life, for its happiness or sorrow, is nothing more or less than what certain unconscious parts of us tell us that it is.

In other words, it's the nature of fish to glide through water, for birds to soar through open ski...

Look any fear in its face, for long enough, and it will retreat... having no recourse other than to return back into the darkness from out of which it appeared.

When reading books, our brain produces a stream of thoughts concerning what it is reading. On the path, our practice is suspension of thought in favor of watching over ourselves. Should one give up such reading at a certain point in one's development to help reduce the number of thoughts compounding the mind? Are these thoughts from reading a hindrance to one's advancement?...
