When mind is neither avoiding something nor chasing after something- it mirrors its Source.
You, Source and Silent Mind are One and the same.
Original Mind is free of distracting thoughts- which bind Us emotionally to the body.
Observe thoughts, don’t react.
Be Silent again…

Surrender happens
When fighting, struggling, resisting
Has completely run its course
And no longer works
Celebrate that time,
It’s the start of the end of self
A sweet death.

We are not very good at recognizing illusions, least of all the ones we cherish about ourselves.”

Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes

You run from suffering
And find it is chasing you.
It finds you everywhere.
“What do you want?” you ask.
“To come home,” it says.

Go deeper.
Beneath the surface of thought,
beneath the waves of emotion,
there is something untouched—
something vast and quiet.
That’s where peace lives
The peace beyond thought
is the peace of simply being.

When the war with life ceases, what is left is extraordinary simplicity. There is nothing left to manage, no position to defend, no image to maintain. The heart opens not as a gesture of effort but as a natural flowering. It opens because there is no longer any reason to remain closed....1/

There is a secret voice
An Intelligence,
Heard only in silence
When the agitated self
Has quietened
It is the voice of wisdom
And profound guidance
An intelligence beyond knowledge
That transcends time
That reaches into eternity
Know inner silence
And you will surely hear it.

The ‘now’ is not merely a moment on the horizontal line of time, but a portal where time and eternity intersect – the doorway through which the separate self is divested of its borrowed limitations and stands revealed as what it has always been.
From finite to the infinite.

What changes is not real, what is real does not change.
Now, what is it in you that does not change?
As long as there is food there is a body and mind.
When the food is stopped, the body dies and the mind dissolves.
But does the observer perish?

Surrender is not weakness, but the ultimate act of courage.
It is an active meeting of life as it is, beyond the mind’s grasping for control and certainty.

In reality time and space exist in you, you do not exist in them.
They are modes of perception...
THe mind creates time and space and takes its own creation for reality.
All is here and now, but we do not see it.

When we refuse to let the world harden us — when we choose kindness in the face of cruelty, or laughter in the middle of grief — we are doing something radical. We are proving that humanity still exists.
