“Freedom of will is our birthright.”

“Divine connection – there cannot be happier or more satisfying moments in any human experience. The peace that pervades us is not of this world.”

“It is this connection to the Divine that gives humanity its only true possibility for happiness in a world incapable of delivering it by itself.” 

“I believe simply that the prime relationship to be developed in the spiritual quest is that relationship between a man or woman and God, not the relationship between one and one’s Church or its clergy.”

“It only matters that we do awaken. Liberation comes first in the mind.”

“Creation is always an act of affirmation, a lust for life or activity, a restlessness accompanied by art. That art is what pleases and invigorates and mystifies me.”

“Mindfulness is a quiet mind, an aware mind. Mindfulness itself is not about ‘arriving,’ but about ‘being.'”
