“Dostoevsky's underground man ... observes his contemporaries striving to establish false goals where there are no naturally generated ones. ...

But on a moonless night, the true servants shine forth, as though they are connected invisibly in this vast and infinite cosmos.”

“We can find true refuge within our own hearts and minds-right here, right now, in the midst of our moment-to-momen t lives. We find true refuge whenever we recognize the silent space of awareness behind all our busy doing and striving. We find refuge whenever our hearts open with tenderness and love. We find refuge whenever we connect with the innate clarity and intelligence of our true nature.”
“The bottom line is pray. If youâ€™re tired, sick, emotionally overwhelmedâ€”pray. If youâ€™re on cloud nine and life seems perfectâ€”pray. If you lack directionâ€”pray. If you doubt that prayer makes any differenceâ€”pray. If the circumstances of your life are out of your controlâ€”pray. If the circumstances of your life seem well within youâ€™re your controlâ€”pray even harder. Whatever you doâ€”pray.”
