“I talk to groups studying the most advanced spiritual teachings and sometimes these people wonder why nothing is happening in their lives.

The motive, if you are to find inner peace, must be an outgoing motive. Service, of course, service. Giving, not getting. Your motive must be good if your work is to have good effect. The secret of life is being of service.”

Under what master magicians did we learn to form reality so smoothly that we forgot to tell ourselves the secret?”
