"The more a person knows the less they talk. I shall cease speaking and endeavor to instill a large band of silence inside myself in order to forge a deeper and closer relationship with all of nature.

Only when I achieve absolute stillness shall I come to a perfect realization of the meaning of existence innate in all things."

"There is no other space, no other time. This moment is all. In this moment the whole existence converges, in this moment all is available."

Mindfulness

"No thought, no mind, no choice - just being silent, rooted in yourself."

Silence

"Stop seeking security. There is none."

Security

"Real meditation means: don't avoid the inner madhouse; enter into it, face it, encounter it, be watchful, because it is through watchfulness that you will overcome it."

Meditation

"Just look around! This immense universe is functioning so perfectly well that nothing can be added to it. It needs no improvement. Seeing this, one relaxes. If stars can go on dancing and flowers can go on blooming and birds can go on singing, why not you? You also belong to this universe. You are part of it. In fact, you are the most valuable part of it, the greatest flowering is going to happen in you-the flowering of consciousness, the golden flower of being."

Nature

"Remain in wonder if you want the mysteries to open up for you. Mysteries never open up for those who go on questioning. Questioners sooner or later end up in a library. Questioners sooner or later end up with scriptures, because scriptures are full of answers.And answers are dangerous, they kill your wonder."

Curiosity

"Be less of a judge and you will be surprised that when you become a witness, you have become a mystic."
