- There is no end to "waking up" in this life.
- It isn't possible for a conscious human being to compromise themselves.
- Fear is an aspect of a divided mind. You can't want something without creating, in the moment of that desire, a fear that you won't get it or can't keep it.
- A pivotal point in a person's spiritual life is when they cast aside the foolish notion that a negative state can do anything for them.
- Life is not a race to win -- it's a school for our higher education.
- Real change requires real intention. Real intention means I'm going to bring myself into this moment with the wish to discover the truth about myself, whatever that may be.
- Exercise: When you meet a moment you don't like, inwardly say, "I didn't know that about myself."
- Our negative reactions in the moment are because something in us is trying to hide something from us.
- When you see something new about yourself, you are released from who and what you have been.
- Exercise: Stop, drop, and endure.
