"If you can be absolutely comfortable with not knowing who you are, then what´s left is who you are - the Being behind the human, a field of pure potentiality rather than something that is already defined."
"Give up defining yourself - to yourself or to others. You won´t die. You will come to life. And don´t be concerned with how others define you. When they define you, they are limiting themselves, so it´s their problem. Whenever you interact with people, don´t be there primarily as a function or a role, but as a field of conscious Presence."
"True self-esteem and true humility arise out of that realization. In the eyes of the ego, self-esteem and humility are contradictory. In truth, they are one and the same."
"In a world of role-playing personalities, those few people who don´t project a mind-made image - and there are some even on TV, in the media, and the business world - but function from the deeper core of their Being, those who do not attempt to appear more than they are but are simply themselves, stand out as remarkable and are the only ones who truly make a difference in this world. They are the bringers of the new consciousness. Whatever they do becomes empowered because it is in alignment with the purpose of the whole. Their influence, however, goes far, beyond what they do, far beyond their function. Their mere presence - simple, natural, unassuming - has a transformational effect on whoever they come into contact with."
"When you don´t play roles, it means there is no self(ego) in what you do. There is no secondary agenda: protection or strengthening of your self. As a result, your actions have far greater power. You are totally focused on the situation. You become one with it. You don´t try to be anybody in particular. You are most powerful, most effective, when you are completely yourself."
"If you can be absolutely comfortable with not knowing who you are, then what´s left is who you are - the Being behind the human, a field of pure potentiality rather than something that is already defined."
"And then there is the universal role(masks) of adults. When you play that role, you take yourself and life very seriously. Spontaneity, lightheartedness, and joy are not part of that role."
"When you fully accept that you don´t know, you actually enter a state of peace ad clarity that is closer to who you truly are than thought could ever be. Defining yourself through thought is limiting yourself."
"The recognition of the false is already the arising of the real."
"Once you realize and accept that all structures(forms) are unstable, even the seemingly solid material ones, peace arises within you."
"The underlying emotion that governs all the activity of the ego is fear. The fear of being nobody, the fear of nonexistence, the fear of death. All its activities are ultimately designed to eliminate this fear, but the most the ego can ever do is to cover it up temporarily with an intimate relationship, a new possession, or winning at this or that. Illusion will never satisfy you. Only the truth of who you are, if realized, will set you free."
"Can you fell there is something in you that would rather be right than at peace? If yes, say hello to the ego"
