Healing is to remind us we are not the experiences of the world.

Nothing real stands between you and your happiness, only illusion and confusion.

'One new perception, one fresh thought, one act of surrender, one change of heart, one leap of faith, can change your life forever.'

Love is the ultimate coach. Do what you love, let love guide you, and let love inspire you.

The final and only act of healing is to accept that there is nothing wrong with you.

You do not understand your own tradition if you do not see it in relation to others.

We all have that desire to be kind of wild and bad.

Don't believe in imagining things different from what they really are. When the Lord puts us in certain circumstances He doesn't mean for us to imagine them away.

To read of human depravity in the police reports is one thing, to see it fall like a black shadow across one's life is another.
