Quotes from this Download Set:

“Our life is like the tip of an arrow flying through space. From the tip of the arrow’s point of view, each instant is new and fresh.”

“Meditation is the art of directly not knowing.”

“Asking the question, ‘How do I hold onto the awakened state?’ denies the awakened state.”

“When you’re not oriented ‘out’ or ‘in,’ you can directly experience what consciousness is in direct experience.”

“Nothing makes everything possible.”

“Witness is a position; witnessing is no position—it simply is.”

“There’s no such thing as illusion opposed to reality. They are the same.”

“It takes devotion and faith to give yourself to the quiet spaces within…to meet your own creative tension and let the unknown take you where it will.”

“In the midst of all human experience, there is a thread of freedom running through it.”

“Enlightenment depends on how big our ‘yes’ is to life.”

“Life is a tremendous challenge to see God in the ordinary and disagreeable. We need the world to do this, lest we end in narcissism.”

“Retreats are ‘enlightenment on training wheels.’”

“Act on the deepest thing you know each and every day.”

Recorded in Pacific Grove, CA on December 4-11, 2015.
