“Not being known doesn't stop the truth from being true. You are led through your lifetime by the inner learning creature, the playful spiritual being that is your real self.

Teaching is reminding others that they know just as well as you. You are all learners, doers and teachers. The best way to pay for a lovely moment is to enjoy it.” KnowsWorldWayWellsRealEndsSelfMomentsSpiritualEnjoyPayKnownTeacherTeachingMastersCreaturesFindingsLifetimeLovelyBest WayBeing TrueButterflyEnd Of The WorldRemindingDoersLearnersTrue YouDemonstratingReal SelfCaterpillarsSpiritual Beings Author:Richard Bach
