“The best way to do something is to do it without thought. That’s real concentration.”

“Do whatever you have to do that’s right in front you. Let everything else go. That’s concentration.”

“Contentment? Hmmmmmmmmm. That’s a really deep one. It requires diving deep into the moment and bringing up that contentment which lies deep within us. You may want to put your life behind you so that it doesn’t impede your way deeper. It’s alright to do something really slowly if that’s what it takes to do the thing you want to do.”

“It’s when we limit our choices that we begin to hone in on what we really want to do. This gives us direction – but what if we choose to do something that doesn’t turn out the way we thought we were directed? Then we deal with that until the next choice. In a sense, every day we get to redefine ourselves. Of course, that definition gets to be redefined in its time. And that’s how we keep evolving.”

“Where do the scenes come from since space and time do not really exist? They come from somewhere, and where is that? Well, that’s the point of the mystery … to experience where somewhere is. I believe it has something to do with quiet and having no expectations.”

“The thing about patience, I mean real patience, is that it is most needed when there is something you really want to see happen. That’s patience.”

“Did you ever watch a smoke ring and how it appears? That’s like our thoughts. They disappear in the same way.”
