unity

To see through the illusion of duality, remember that fear and darkness have no substance in themselves, for they do not indicate the presence of a second universal force, but are only names given to the one Light unperceived.

To the ego, love is poison.

The shortest interval between two points is the awareness that they are not two.

At each moment, our seemingly objective world emerges from the dancing of consciousness with a single untruth: that there is something out there which is not us.

When you take a solemn oath your heart and soul listens, then perception of consciousness and unity comes.

No matter how different one looks or may seem, all are just shades in the colorful rainbow of life that loves everyone, no matter if they are short, purple, or green.

Something ancient in us bends us toward the origins of the whole thing. We either drown in the splits and confusions of our lives, or we surrender to something greater than ourselves. The water of our deepest troubles is also the water of our own solution. In surrender, we descend down to the bottom of it and back to the beginning of it; down into what is divided in order to get back to the wholeness before the split. Healing, health, wealth, wholeness: all hail from the same roots. To heal is to make whole again; wholeness is what all healing seeks and what alone can truly unify our spirit.

The only way we succeed as a group is not simply following directions, but in keeping each other accountable for our actions.

Without self-esteem and respect for others, you cannot be true to your own values.

The bond that attaches us to the life outside ourselves is the same bond that holds us to our own life.
