We are capable of doing many things at once, such as driving our car while having a conversation with our friend who is a passenger. We can listen to our friend and respond, all the while keeping our attention on the road with awareness of our destination guiding our turns. In this same way, it is possible to work in the world and fulfill our responsibilities while inwardly engaging in prayer.

Prayer of the heart is a prayer that arises spontaneously from divine love. When we are in love, there is no effort required to think of our beloved; our mind is captured by the heart.

Consciousness spans heaven and earth. When we change our consciousness, we wake up to a changed life, not some future fantasy, but now. From awakened consciousness, make choices that are consistent with true freedom.

Life is ready and willing to give us all that we need in this moment. When we let go of the past, this truth is abundantly revealed.

Renunciation does not require renouncing the world or our duties in it. The abode of the true renunciate is the cave of the heart. Everything that is done with nonattachment and love for God in our hearts is renunciation.

Do not say you will begin to practice meditation tomorrow, or next week when you have finished some important work, or when more time is available. Everything depends on God. Begin now.
