 Reason is a mighty faculty but it is still below the state of awareness, of pure experiencing, which is the state you are in when you know 'I exist' or 'I am'. |
| Reasonable acceptance, our way of living, is imperfect. But God, if God exists, must be perfect and beyond reason. |
| The Creator has to be experienced beyond the five senses and the only instrument that can experience in this way, for you, is yourself - in the state of thoughtless awareness in which you declare 'I am' and hold it. |
| The fact is always simple. The difficulty is in seeing it through the mind which always takes the imaginative way - until it is stilled. |
| The fact is that unless you experience something for yourself it does not exist for you. |
| The man-machine will crucify any conscious man who tries to help him; and convert his wisdom into an empty, mechanical dogma that suits his own understanding. |
| The moment is your only duty. Your duty at any time in your life is to do what you have to do from moment to moment. |
| The more you observe life in relation to yourself the more you will see the fact that you are hardly ever correct when you think about something in the future. The future exists only in imagination; and that is why, no matter how hard you try to imagine it, you will not be able to predict the future with total certainty. |
| THE STATE OF AWARENESS is the state in which you see things as they are. |
| The understanding of love comes with the knowledge that you are nothing. |
| There is only one thing in your life YOU can be sure of. That one thing is this moment, now. The last moment has gone forever The next moment has not come. |
| To go beyond reason we have to climb up the ladder of reason and go to the top of it. This will not upset reason as it is interested only in assembling the facts, whatever they might be. Reason is an ever-loyal tool; imagination an ever-failing fool. |
| We can rarely see things from the point of view of another person because we look at the facts through the screen of an impression or an interest which distorts our view; and then there are accusations, quarrels and misunderstanding. |
| WE HAVE SEEN that hunger and breathing are desires of the body. There are other desires that are not of the body, but again man seldom pauses to observe these desires in himself. |
| When the robot mind is mastered, undisciplined thinking ceases and is replaced by awareness. Awareness can know love. |
