“We have to be rid of all paradigms, I mean all, and go to that place where all paradigms dissolve. That’s what this certainly is all about; especially the scary paradigms. Do you really think that we are all going to Hell, or even Heaven? This is not about punishment and reward. We already have the reward. It’s the grace of this journey into the heart of the Creator and being a part of that creation.”

“Breaking paradigms is scary. Not breaking them is even scarier. Life is scary, but mostly we scare ourselves.***”

“Listen, ultimately we have to let go of all attachments - I mean all attachments.”

“Everybody, everybody, no matter what their position in life, has to give it up. Eventually, we have to let it all go - all we have accumulated - money, titles, family. In the end, it all has to go. In the meantime, don't be so attached to the parts you play and focus mainly on your sanity in playing those parts.”

“In a sense, all life is a prank. We are not who we appear to be and no one else is as they appear to be. So how can we handle that little mystery? This whole business about God – what’s that all about? No one knows anything about that either. So we have people who are not as they appear to be, telling us about something that they have no idea about. We really are on our own here to try and figure it out. That’s the real adventure of it. Some people are anxious to tell you what they know and have experienced. I’d rather hear from some people who admit to what they don’t know and haven’t experienced. They’re much more interesting.”

“You have to surrender everything because you don’t know how it’s going to turn out. That’s what makes it all so mysterious.”

“It’s hard to trust our own decisions, but we have no options. We have to do that in order to be all right with ourselves.”
