The natural wish and impetus to feel oneself to be an individual, to be special, includes standing out more than anyone else.

The heart, like the grape, is prone to delivering its harvest in the same moment it appears to be crushed.

The body is the doorway to the timeless, because the body is always where we are and always in the present moment.

Be willing to be where you actually are. In my experience, that is the most inherently meaningful experience you can have.

If you allow yourself to fully feel the life you're in - not conceptually, but viscerally in the present moment - then that is inherently meaningful.

Love, like everything else, exists in a spectrum. Love of another, love of the world, love of God, all these loves are really one love in different degrees of light and density.

When the heart opens, we forget ourselves and the world pours in: this world, and also the invisible world of meaning that sustains everything that was and ever shall be.

We have all had serendipitous moments - the most unlikely meetings out of nowhere - that can happen when we have this quality of deep acceptance towards ourselves.

Day by day, tiny specks of us float away.

To keep faith with life is to experience that everything- everything that comes to us whatever it is- has its place in the puzzle of our existence.

I certainly spent many years in my early life chasing all over the globe for meaning and purpose. I'd feel like I'd found it, then it would fade away again.

Remember, there are only a few model preachers. We have read of only one perfect Model, and He was crucified many centuries ago.

The birds suffer their suffering each in a lifetime, forgetting it as they go.

A free ride is life's most difficult journey.

Great teams always have a Plan B. Look at Barcelona. Their Plan B is to stick to Plan A

Cats hate a closed door, you know, regardless of which side they're on. If they're out, they want to get in, and if they're in, they want to get out.

All of life is energy and we are transmitting it at every moment.

History is absolutely my thing.

You have to be more disciplined every day to get better and learn the game.
