Awakening
Presence unfolding,
into silence, space, no-mind.
Home again once more.

Quotes from Alan Cohen
From the book, A Course in Miracles – Made Easy
The ego is a severly limited idea about who and what you are. It defines you as a body only, confined within the boundaries of your flesh, subject ot all the laws and experiences that affect bodies.
You can evaluate the truth in a religion or any spiritual path by the size of the gap it defines between you and the heaven you deserve. The greater the gap, the farther the religion has drifted from truth. The closer the gap, the closer the truth. When there is no gap, you are home.
Quotes From ACIM
From the book, A Course In Miracles
Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God.
I am never upset for the reason I think.
There is no world apart from what you wish,
herein lies your ultimate release. Change but
your mind on what you want to see, and all
the world must change accordingly.
Love holds no grievances.
When I let all my grievances
go I will know I am perfectly save.
Quotes of Sri Nisargaddatta Maharaj
From the book, I Am That:
The real does not die, the unreal never lived.
Once you know that death happens to the body and not to you, you just watch your body falling of like a discarded garment.
The real you is timeless and beyond birth and death. The body will survive as long as it is needed. It is not important that it should live long.
Quotes of Dr David Hawkins
The only simple task to be accomplished is to let go of the identification with the ego as one’s real self”
From the book, Daily Relections:
To best serve the world, seek enlightenment and transcend illusions rather than contribute to them.
From the book, DISSOLVING THE EGO, REALIZING THE SELF:
Realization is a progressive process. Spiritual progress is hastened by understanding the true nature of the ego. It is not a enemy to be attacked or defeated, nor is it an evil to be vanquished. It is dissovled by compassionate understanding.
Quotes of Eckhart Tolle
From the book, The Power of Now:
Realize deeply that the present moment is all you have. Make the NOW the primary focus of your life. Time isn’t precious at all, because it is an illusion. What you perceive as precious is not time but the one point that is out of time: the Now.
As soon as you honor the present moment, all unhappiness and struggle dissolve, and life begins to flow with joy and ease.
The Blissful Obeyance
The blissful obeyance of the chattering mind. Gives a glimpse of freedom so elusive to find. The start of the journey beyond the ego. Begins with acceptance, to go with life’s flow. Let go of the ego and its usurpation of life. It’s limitations, its need to be separate to create conflict and strife See passed both body and mind. Where truth patiently awaits for you to find And ego is no longer identified as “me”. Instead, I am bliss and peace And finally free.
