“Don't believe every thing you think.”

“We don't attach to people or to things; we attach to uninvestigated concepts that we believe to tbe true in the moment.”

“I love what I think, and I'm never tempted to believe it.”

“There is nothing that isn't true if you believe it; and nothing is true, believe it or not.”

“Our parents, our children, our spouses, and our friends will continue to press every button we have, until we realize what it is that we don't want to know about ourselves, yet. They will point us to our freedom every time.”

“Hurt feelings or discomfort of any kind cannot be caused by another person. No one outside me can hurt me. That's not a possibility. It's only when I believe a stressful thought that I get hurt. And I'm the one who's hurting me by believing what I think. This is very good news, because it means that I don't have to get someone else to stop hurting me. I'm the one who can stop hurting me. It's within my power.What we are doing with inquiry is meeting our thoughts with some simple understanding, finally. Pain, anger, and frustration will let us know when it's time to inquire. We either believe what we think or we question it: there's no other choice. Questioning our thoughts is the kinder way. Inquiry always leaves us as more loving human beings.”

“You move totally away from reality when you believe that there is a legitimate reason to suffer".”
