I have come to the conclusion that consciousness and whatever appears in consciousness is nothing but a gigantic fraud. There is no one who has committed this fraud - it is a spontaneous happening. There is no perpetrator of this fraud.
The truth saves you, even if you fear it.
don't try to be beautiful
just be real, and that is already beautiful enough

To be trusted is a greater compliment than being loved.
The Sage tells us that disciples are of four grades, comparable to gun-powder, dry charcoal, ordinary fuel, and wet fuel.
The first kind of disciple needs only a word, like a spark, to consume his ignorance at once.
The second kind needs some teaching and personal effort.
The third kind needs a long course of teaching, training and practice.
The fourth kind needs to be made fit for discipleship by practices suitable to his condition.
— Maha Yoga, Chapter 11

it is perfect
as it is.

Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers.
You close your eyes and see darkness, but it is by the light of consciousness that darkness is seen.
What a relief to be empty!
Then God can live your life.

You are the honoured guest.
Do not weep like a beggar for pieces of the world.

The truthful one achieves with his honesty what the liar cannot achieve with his deception.
You are hurt the moment you believe yourself to be.
Hear this: God can only exist in the heart of man, not elsewhere. You identify with the body and limit yourself, and yet, remember, do not neglect this body, this is the house of God, take care of it. Only in this body can God be realized.
A liar's biggest punishment in this world is that even his truth is rejected.
Be tolerant with others and strict with yourself.
Doubt is your number one enemy. Faith is your best friend. Have faith and put forth effort. You will see the outcome.
Spiritual practice is will asserted and re-asserted. Who has not the daring will not accept the real even when offered. Unwillingness born out of fear is the only obstacle.
This place is a dream. Only a sleeper considers it real.
The desire to know your own soul will end all other desires.
You always have an option of having no opinion.
Even if you find the most important relic, even if you found one of Jesus' tooth, it will have no power compared to a human being whose life is on fire for love and truth.
Because you are sentience itself, you are the living one.

It is the urge, the hidden motive that matters, not the shape it takes. Whatever he does, if he does it for the sake of finding his own real self, will surely bring him to himself.
If you want words, I shall give you some of the ancient words of power. Repeat any of them ceaselessly; they can work wonders.
