Freedom Is in This Moment: Excerpts
People want to grasp the Truth with their mind. But they can’t. The Truth shies away from them because it can’t be possessed. You have to dissolve yourself into it.
(p 252)
Every problem starts with a thought. We think a certain way about something, and by sticking with that thought and giving it importance, we create misery for ourselves. Being present gives us the possibility to see the thought just as a thought and not identify with it.
(p 363)
You can’t separate your finger from your body and still say it’s a finger. In the same way, you can’t separate yourself from the totality. Without the totality of Existence, “you” is a meaningless concept.
