Quote by Bruce Lee

“In life, we accept naturally the full reality of what we see and feel in general with no shadow of a doubt. Philosophy, however, does not accept what life believes, and strives to convert reality into a problem. Thus, rather than making life easy for living by living in accord with life, philosophy complicates it by replacing the world's tranquillity with the restlessness of problems.”

“It’s easier for me to make sense of it that way than it is for me to face the other way—reality. And yet, those evil spirits that were unleashed—be they fake entities from a stupid carnival ride, or cruel malevolencies from dark spiritual chasms of our universe—have stayed with me all these years”

“What if your whole life could be a meditation? I’m not suggesting some far-off retreat center where the worries of the world couldn’t reach you. Nope. I’m suggesting the opposite. Create a space inside you that is so peaceful, so unflappable, that you’d never “need” a vacation away from it…and that is how to turn a life into a meditation.”

“My job is to change my VIEW of the world to live in a way not separated from Love; to live in manifested Love; and to shine it so brightly everywhere, that all those ideas about our separateness fade in that brightness. Remembering the Love that we are is what gives us the power to change our world, from the inside out, where the power always is.”

“The energy fueling everything we do is what matters most. EVERY. “LITTLE.” THING. Even if we’re changing a toilet paper roll, we can do it joyfully, instead of wasting time resenting the person who used that last square and neglected to replace it. “Little” responses like that add up in the movie of our life. We don’t really get to play the martyr anymore, but that’s a great role to give up. Better to play the happy star of our own show.”

“I deeply believe that we each have our own, very special form of Love to manifest. It’s what we came to do, and if we lived that manifested Love, the way we see the world would change completely! Notice how I didn’t say, “by manifesting Love we could change the world completely”? Changing the world is never my goal. Did you just gasp? Shouldn’t every helpful “spiritual person” want to change the world? My guess? Nah. My job is to change my view of the world to live in a way not separated from Love; to live in manifested Love; and to shine it so brightly everywhere, that all those ideas about our separateness fade in that brightness. Remembering the Love that we are is what gives us the power to change our world, from the inside out, where the power always is.”
