“Let the world call you lazy for not walking in a rush like a scared ghost. Just be silent within yourself. Watch how life flows at your own will.”
~ Mooji
Solitude is in the mind of man. One might be in the thick of the world and maintain serenity of mind; such a one is in solitude. Another may stay in a forest, but still be unable to control his mind. He cannot be said to be in solitude. Solitude is a function of the mind.
Ramana
If you want to explore the deepest dimensions of life with a playful spirit, you should have a loving heart, a joyful mind, and a vibrant body.
~ Sadhguru
Whenever you are conscious of the breath, you are absolutely present. You may also notice that you cannot think and be aware of your breathing. Conscious breathing stops your mind.
Compassion really means when you have joy in your heart for everything that you see, the good, the bad, and the ugly. It means that you're not judgmental, you're totally free and you let everything else be free.
Robert Adams
The moment that judgment stops through acceptance of what it is, you are free of the mind. You have made room for love, for joy, for peace.
~ Eckhart Tolle
Those who believe the mind to be real will not be able to subdue it. In the state in which the mind appears to be real, mind is putting on the dress of the policeman [to pretend to catch himself]. We must know how to destroy the mind by knowing its real nature.
Ramana Maharshi
When you stop searching and you calm down and you put your books away, and you confront yourself and see what you are all about, that will bring about bliss faster than anything you can ever imagine or ever do.
~ Robert Adams
As soon as you let go of the world, it will fall off your shoulders and crack into a million pieces. Drop whatever burden you are carrying right now. Whatever it may be, how serious you think it is, drop it right now; be rid of it. Bliss is waiting for you to let go.

Go back to the 'I Am' with respiration. You inhale and you say 'I'. You exhale and say 'Am'. As you progress this way, you’re going to find out something interesting happens to your life. You’re going to find there’s more space between 'I Am'. It will happen by itself.
R. Adams
The reality only comes when you give up yourself, when you give up your ego, when you give up your needs, your wants, trying to make something happen, desires, when you give up trying to become self-realized, when you just give up.
Robert Adams, Transcript 78
Truth comes to you when you prepare yourself through deep surrender to yourself, giving up all attachment, giving up your body, your mind, and everything that's important to you, to the Self. As long as you're holding on to anything, the reality will evade you.
Robert Adams, T78
