“No matter how long your journey appears to be, there is never more than this: one step, one breath, one moment-NOW.” ~Eckhart Tolle
It just doesn’t get better than this.
What it means to me is that no matter how difficult or easy your journey may be at a given moment, there is merely: one step, one breath, one moment-NOW.
Great question! Thank you!!
” wanting arises from the ego’s delusion that you are a separate fragment that is disconnected from the power that lies behind all creation ”
this means to me that one may want many things,
any yet never find enjoyment,
what is truth is that we should only enjoy what we have in the moment,
and that everything is of one within natures ways as one whole of creation.

What a liberation to realize that the “voice in my head” is not who I am. Who am I then? The one who sees that.
The mind is a superb instrument if used rightly. Used wrongly, however, it becomes very destructive. To put it more accurately, it is not so much that you use your mind wrongly – you usually don’t use it at all. It uses you. This is the disease. You believe that you are your mind. This is the delusion. The instrument has taken you over.
To love is to recognize yourself in another.
As far as inner transformation is concerned, there is nothing you can do about it. You cannot transform yourself, and you certainly cannot transform your partner or anybody else. All you can do is create a space for transformation to happen, for grace and love to enter.
What you do to others, you do to yourself.
I have lived with several Zen masters–all of them cats.
The one about the cats is my favorite, LOL!
Many Blessings!
“What’s for dinner?”
Which I interpret to mean: “What’s for dinner?”
“How come nobody knows who I am?”
“Have you found the off button?” (in regards to the mind).

If there is no Resurrection, let us eat and drink for tomorrow we will die.
OOps, that from the bible.
