Quotes from this Download Set:

“The more you are willing to embody a certain energy, the less that energy disturbs you.”

“To be a benevolent presence in the world doesn’t mean we necessarily have some huge impressive-sounding agenda – it’s just being who we are.”

“The whole idea of this is not to grasp on to any particular state. Find out what’s common to all of them -- from heaven to hell to this moment and everything else in between.” 

“The still small voice will never justify itself.”

“The divine is a constant state of being and becoming. It is evolving and also what it is.”

“Notice the reality wherever you happen to be, because there’s as much reality in the ordinary moments as there is in the most extraordinary moments.”

“Follow anger to the root emotion to free it up.”

“The funny thing about doubt is doubt almost never doubts itself.”

“The paradox is when you lose an ego, you gain the whole universe.”

“My role as the exterior teacher is to orient you to the inner teacher. The exterior teacher should never take the place of the inner teacher.”

“When this retreat ends, don’t leave retreat. Remember that what makes it a retreat is your intention.”

Recorded at Kanuga Conference Center in Hendersonville, North Carolina on March 20-26, 2016.
