“What a liberation to realize that the “voice in my head” is not who I am. Who am I then? The one who sees that.”

“The ultimate truth of who you are is not I am this or I am that, but I Am.”

“Only the truth of who you are, if realized, will set you free.”

“Fulfill me, make me happy, make me feel safe, tell me who I am. The world cannot give you those things, and when you no longer have such expectations, all self created suffering comes to an end.”

“You find peace not by rearranging the circumstances of your life, but by realizing who you are at the deepest level.”

“I don't want it to end, and so, as every therapist knows, the ego does not want an end to its “problems” because they are part of its identity. If no one will listen to my sad story, I can tell it to myself in my head, over and over, and feel sorry for myself, and so have an identity as someone who is being treated unfairly by life or other people, fate or God. It gives definition to my self-image, makes me into someone, and that is all that matters to the ego.”

“Many people don’t realize until they are on their deathbed and everything external falls away that no thing ever had anything to do with who they are.”
