Spiritual knowledge amassed from books is like building a house of cards; a little troublesome wind will overturn it. But knowledge gained through direct perception is eternal, unshakable. Seek God in the "book" of your heart through daily, divine meditation.

Once our innate divinity is revealed, we must act in accordance with it. True revelation purifies heart and mind, and spontaneous goodness--kindness in thought, speech, and action--springs forth like grasses after the rain.

The key to freedom, security, and happiness is forged from the practice of letting go of self-will. Without that key, much of our energy is spent trying to get what we want, or avoid what we don't want. Imagine being free of all that. You are the locksmith.

The feeling of being overwhelmed, experiencing life as a burden with too much to do, is not caused by work. At the root of this difficulty is a break from living in harmony with our deepest values. When we live in accordance with our soul's wisdom, we are inwardly sustained.

Ego is a seamstress who sews thoughts together to make the curtain that separates us from seeing the unity of life.
