Watch where the mind runs and bring it back. Repeatedly returning the mind to rest in the awareness of the presence of God, or the One Reality, saves us from the myriad distractions that can rob our energy and squander our time. Those intent on spiritual awakening remain focused on the goal.

Everything gives according to its nature; nothing can provide more than what it is. What is temporary brings temporary happiness or security, which is its full extent. Only That which is eternal can give lasting happiness.

Draw a circle of unbroken awareness from your meditation cushion to every action in your day. The illumined mind, dwelling in the conscious awareness of the presence of God, draws the circle.
