'Seek not to change the world, but seek to change instead your mind about the world [Get your head out of problems,upsets & fears & rise to a new kind of vision]' : CiM

'We are anchored in the unchanging, totally reliable presence. To understand is to "'stand under". Everything in the world is of a transitory nature- it comes to pass. Any sort of stability in Life requires that we have a foot in both aspects of creation: that which does not change and that which does, otherwise, we're out of balance' : JB

'But however great is your accumulation of the other, the objective, the world, it is not going to become a substitute for your self-knowing. With self-knowing suddenly all darkness disappears and all separation from existence. Lose yourself, because that is the only way to find yourself' :O

'The mind tends to jump towards boredom, frustration, judgement & fears so quickly but as you begin or continue to observe these behaviours that come from the mind and to your feelings without identifying with them too quickly or personally, you'll feel that a space opens up between the functioning mind and it's behaviour & you your true self who is observing these things. That is a very powerful change in the way we perceive & gives great strength, integrity, power & distance. It matures our powers of discerning good from bad, right from wrong. Don't miss the opportunity that comes in trying times. Don't waste it in feeling sorry for yourselves or grieving for your losses.' : M
