In each moment the fire rages, it will burn away a hundred veils. And carry you a thousand steps toward your goal.
Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion.
Don’t grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
Why should I be unhappy? Every parcel of my being is in full bloom.
Raise your words, not voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.
Ignore those that make you fearful and sad, that degrade you back towards disease and death.
I know you’re tired but come, this is the way.
Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames.
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.
And so it is, that both the devil and the angelic spirits present us with objects of desire to awaken our power of choice.
Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.
You have to keep breaking your heart until it opens.
Your heart is the size of an ocean. Go find yourself in its hidden depths.
What is planted in each person’s soul will sprout.
Forget safety. Live where you fear to live.
The universe is not outside of you. Look inside yourself; everything that you want, you already are.
If light is in your heart, you will find your way home.
This is a subtle truth. Whatever you love you are.
The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart.
Why do you stay in prison when the door is so wide open.
As you start to walk on the way, the way appears.
It’s your road, and yours alone, others may walk it with you, but no one can walk it for you.
Seek the wisdom that will untie your knot. Seek the path that demands your whole being.
