This one life has no form and is empty by nature. If you become attached by any form, you should reject it. If you see an ego, a soul, a birth, or a death, reject them all.
- Bodhidharma
If there is to be any peace it will come through being not having.
- Henry Miller
The present moment is a powerful goddess.
- Goethe
Any intellectually conceived object is always in the past and therefore unreal. Reality is always the moment of vision before the intellectualization takes place. There is no other reality.
- Robert Pirsig
Maybe that is the purest and most radical kind of religion – simple attention. Present-moment awareness. Instead of a belief system, awareness sees through all beliefs.
- Joan Tollifson
The world exists only when we think about it; creation stories are for children. In reality the world is created every moment.
- Jean Klein
Be knowingly silent as often as you can and you will no longer be a prey to the desire to be this or that. You will discover in the everyday events of life the deep meaning behind the fulfilment of the whole, for the ego is totally absent.
- Jean Klein
It is the 'I-am-the-body' idea that is so calamitous. It blinds you completely to your real nature. Even for a moment do not think you are the body. Give yourself no name, no shape. In the darkness and the silence, reality is found. Behave as if you were fully convinced and the confidence will come.
- Nisargadatta Maharaj
Why are you unhappy? Because 99.9% of everything you think and of everything you do is for yourself – and there isn’t one.
