Quotes from this Download Set:

"Reality doesn't experience itself one way; it experiences itself all ways."

"If you define freedom as an expanded state of mind, then it's not actually free because you have to be there; it's defined. It requires you to be in a particular state of being to be free."

"Great happiness and well-being is found in the moments that we forget ourselves."

"Meditation is not about getting good at it; you're exploring the nature of existence, the nature of Self."

"Biology isn't the only thing that seeks to survive -- self seeks to survive."

"All attempts to rid the self come from the self."

"One of the greatest spiritual disciplines is to live in the unknown."

"Imagine all you'd be freed up from if you didn't have a self to protect."

"The first thing we know when we ask 'Who am I?' is that we don't know."

"You come to know reality through being it."

"In the unknown is where love blooms and comes alive."

"Delusion is not the opposite of reality but a way reality can present itself."

"Freedom is ultimately the freedom to include all perspectives."

"It takes courage to ask the questions that must be asked."

“Have 100% willingness to exist and 100% willingness not to exist.”
