You feel very light, relieved from the unnecessary baggage.”

“In a movie, when a character receives a letter, she reads it aloud for the audience. Other characters of the movie can’t know the secret, but she tells it to the audience. Be the audience if you want to know the deepest secrets of the universe. Be the audience if you want to make sense of what is happening around you. Your character is the doer while your soul is the audience. Be at the level of soul more often.”

“Imagine that God or Supreme Power came before you in the form of a fragrance which is a mixture of all the fragrances of the universe. But your mind will only pick up fragrances you are familiar with and say, “I know the fragrance of God. It’s like fragrance of my child... my lover ... my parents... my childhood memories ...” The God is right before you but your mind is recognizing only small parts of Him. To experience Him fully, you have to rise above the level of mind, and then rise above the level of soul, and finally be the God or Paramatma.”

“Yeah sex is cool, but it's easily accessible. At this age I'm looking for something deeper. Chemistry i can't find on a resume, passion i can't ignore. Mind connection that allows conversation without words, a gaze that makes me forget which planet I'm on, and a depth that makes me want to stay. I want to dive deep into someone's soul and feel like I belong there. Face the world separately but intertwined in each others presence. A home that carries a heartbeat. All these years of riding solo, has helped me tend to my heart space and what a glorious little beat it now holds. An auric field re-awakened. A self-love journey, just for myself.”

“As long as you perceive that anyone is holding you back, you have not taken full responsibility for your own liberation. Liberation means that you stand free of making demands on others and on life to make you happy. When you discover yourself to be nothing but Freedom, you stop setting up conditions and requirements that need to be satisfied in order for you to be happy. It is in the absolute surrender of all conditions and requirements that Liberation is discovered to be who and what you Are. Then the love and wisdom that flows out of you have a liberating effect on others. (p. 119)”

“Everything depends upon your readiness and willingness to let go into the Unknown and live from that mysterious and precious condition. The question is: Are you ready to give up everything when God comes knocking at your door? This willingness to completely let go and surrender to the divine determines how free you will ultimately become. Whatever you hold back for yourself will become your prison. My advice is to give your whole heart, mind, body, and soul to Grace when it comes. Ask yourself now: Am I ready? (p. 116)”
