"Straight away, remove yourself from the field of spiritual progression , stay away from contemplation and skillful discourse, do not do research or meditate on the divinities, and stop concentrating and reciting textbooks! Tell me, what is the absolute nature of reality which allows no room for doubt? Listen carefully! Stop holding on to this or that, inhabit your true absolute nature, and peacefully enjoy the essence of what it is to be alive!" ~More

Throughout the world, so-called holy men have maintained that to look at a woman is something totally wrong: they say you cannot come near to God if you indulge in sex, therefore they push it aside although they are eaten up with it. But by denying sexuality they put out their eyes and cut out their tongues for they deny the whole beauty of the earth. They have starved their hearts and minds; they are dehydrated human beings; they have banished beauty because beauty is associated with woman. More

"Tantra loves, and loves unconditionally. It never says no to anything whatsoever, because everything is part of the whole, and everything has its own place in the whole, and the whole cannot exist with anything missing from it." ~More

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. More

Another illusion is that we are awake. When we realize that we are asleep we will see that all history is made by people who are asleep. Sleeping people fight, make laws; sleeping people obey or disobey them. The worst of our illusions are the wrong ideas among which we live and which govern our lives. If we could change our attitude towards these wrong ideas and understand what they are, this in itself would be a great change and would immediately change other things More

The human psyche shows that each individual is an extension of all of existence.

You do not need a teacher or guru. You do not need to follow a practice, to meditate, to say a mantra. You do not need to attend a church or a synagogue. You do not need to repent, to confess anything to another human being. You do not need to say prayers at certain times, on certain days, in certain places. You do not need to kneel to anyone. You do not need to follow rules and regulations and theologies or dogmas. You do not need to give money to any group, or cause or offer tithes to anyone. You do not need any sacraments or blessings. You do not need to read the Bible, the Koran, the Torah, the Gita, the Tao, the Gospels, the teachings of Buddha. No, sorry, my dear friend, this is all a big ruse, a big mistake. Without your money, without your blind obedience, these religions, teachers and traditions would fade into nothingness. No, there is nothing you need at all.
You are that to which all these traditions, all these teachers, all these words are pointing. You are the sacrament of the divine. You are the sons and daughters of God. You are the Buddha. You are the Christ. You are the chosen. You are redeemed and saved already. You are forgiven. You are!
If you stop, right now, this moment, everything, and see what is still there, what is always there in you, through you, with you. You will see that to which all these people, traditions and religions are pointing:” your very Self” in “Pure Silence”. In that is your freedom. In that is your teacher. In that is your destiny.
