If light is in your heart, you will find your way home.

Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames.

Dance until you shatter yourself.

Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought.

As you start to walk on the way, the way appears.

Become the sky. Take an axe to the prison wall. Escape.

I know you’re tired but come, this is the way.

The wealth within you, your essence, is your kingdom.

To praise the sun is to praise your own eyes.

What hurts you, blesses you. Darkness is your candle.

Respond to every call that excites your spirit.

Wherever you stand, be the soul of that place.

You were born with wings. Why prefer to crawl through life?

Half-heartedness doesn’t reach into majesty.

Look at the moon in the sky, not the one in the lake.

What is planted in each person’s soul will sprout.

Grace comes to forgive and then forgive again.

Patience with small details makes perfect a large work, like the universe.

Anyone who genuinely and consistently with both hands looks for something, will find it.

In each moment the fire rages, it will burn away a hundred veils. And carry you a thousand steps toward your goal.

The garden of the world has no limit except in your mind.

When I am silent, I fall into the place where everything is music.

There is a life-force within your soul, seek that life. There is a gem in the mountain of your body, seek that mine. O traveller, if you are in search of that, don’t look outside, look inside yourself and seek that.

With every breath, I plant the seeds of devotion, I am a farmer of the heart.

Everyone has been made for some particular work, and the desire for that work has been put in every heart.

Achieve some perfection yourself, so that you may not fall into sorrow by seeing the perfection in others.

Don’t be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.

Whether one moves slowly or with speed, the one who is a seeker will be a finder.

Be a lamp, or a lifeboat, or a ladder. Help someone’s soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd.

Let us carve gems out of our stony hearts and let them light our path to love.

Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah… it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.

Seek the wisdom that will untie your knot. Seek the path that demands your whole being.

Seek the wisdom that will untie your knot. Seek the path that demands your whole being. Whoever has heart’s doors wide open, could see the sun itself in every atom.

The message behind the words is the voice of the heart.

You are not one you are a thousand. Just light your lantern.

I have neither a soul nor a body, for I come from the very Soul of all souls.

When someone beats a rug, the blows are not against the rug, but against the dust in it.

Concentrate on the Essence, concentrate on the light.

Why do you stay in prison when the door is so wide open?

Death has nothing to do with going away. The sun sets. The moon sets. But they are not gone.

Beyond the rightness or wrongness of things there is a field, I’ll meet you there.

Something opens our wings. Something makes boredom and hurt disappear. Someone fills the cup in front of us: We taste only sacredness.

Every need brings what’s needed. Pain bears its cure like a child. Having nothing produces provisions. Ask a difficult question, and the marvelous answer appears.

The soul has been given its own ears to hear things mind does not understand.

Discard yourself and thereby regain yourself. Spread the trap of humility and ensnare love.

All that you think is rain is not. Behind the veil angels sometimes weep.

Inside any deep asking is the answering.

My words are like a ship, and the sea is their meaning. Come to me and I will take you to the depths of spirit. I will meet you there.
