"You begin to recognize Love infuses everything. Your own heart is the wind, it is the trees, it is the earth. It is even in the conflicts which arise, in the pain that comes up.
It is the storm, it is the open sky, it is totality. It excludes nothing and embraces everything.
And in this embrace there is but one taste and that is the taste of Love."
DevajiThe "me" can not understand what "no me" means.
Eric PutkonenThe yoga of now is silence.
KosiThe practice of presence is an opening, a relaxing of your focus (while maintaining alertness) and letting everything come to you, instead of you chasing after something (even though the reality is that awareness doesn’t “come” to us because we already are that). The words “relaxing into it while maintaining alertness” seem to point to a mind-made effort, but what I’m talking about is to leave the mind as it is, without giving it anything to do.
Enza VitaTo move from the belief, I am something, to the understanding that I am nothing is a path of exclusion - I am not this, not this, not this.

Peter LawryI don't care if you discover some bliss filled samadhi state where you fully understand that you are one with everything..., you are going to come back to a body, a mind, a personality, and pain and death. What then?
Kiran TraceAwareness, our true nature, is like the sun in the sky. The sun’s rays are the pathless path we travel back and forth between our original nature and its expression, thoughts, emotions and objects.
Without encountering an object, the light of the sun wouldn’t be visible. It is only visible when it reflects back off an object. Manifest reality, the world around us, is the object, a mirror like-reality that reflects back the sun, allowing its light to be seen. Just as a reflection in the mirror, it may look very real, but it is only a reflection. Although it might look like there are two realities, the sun and the mirror, there is really only One.

Alon Halel Geva There are no awakened people. There is only boundless being, ever-present and ever-changing -- unavoidable and impossible to not be. There is nothing that is not the Truth.
