REFLECTIONS
The Roots of Confusion
The root cause behind all our psychological suffering is, after all, not such a big mystery.
The Sublime Essence
Gain and loss are but ripples on the surface of the Timeless — that which transcends all limitation,
all sense of lack, and the very ideas of birth and death.
The Ocean Within
Whenever in life you feel lost, tossed around by endless storms, drowning, it may be that what is needed is not more action, but stillness and depth.
Peace isn’t for “Me”
Why can we not live in peace? Because it is not us who long for peace, but something within us that can never experience it.
The False Self
Whether life expresses itself in one way or another, there is not—and never was—a “me” in charge.
You Are Reality
No experience can bring you closer to it—or further away. No amount of pleasure or pain, gain or loss, success or failure can alter or stain it.

The monsters we see, we create
Narratives that thrive on the fear of external enemies share the same fundamental flaw: they are constructed on the false premise that life can be divided, that it can be at war with itself…
The Formless
True reality consists of infinitely more than the perceived world. And in that discovery, the sages say, lies true liberation…
Who is Perceiving?
What is perception? What is doing it? And who or what is it that is perceiving? Can you know?…
You are Perfect
You are perfect. You need absolutely nothing. You are perfect just as you are. And this moment is perfect and complete just as it is…

We see life as potentially good or bad to us. So we must believe we are somehow separate from it. But are we, really?…
The Simple Love of Being
If humanity is afflicted by one disease above all, it is this: to have lost touch with the sacred…
