There is no one alive who has not wanted to go back to sleep.
Elizabeth Lesser
Each one of us regardless of our situation, is in our search of our most authentic, vital, generous and wise self.
Elizabeth Lesser
If we can stay awake when our lives are changing, secrets will be revealed to us-secrets about ourselves, about the nature of life, and about the eternal source of happiness and peace that is always available, always renewable, already within us.
Elizabeth Lesser
Talking to each other instead of talking about each other is not some kind of nicey-nice (ph) idea. It's the difference between societies falling apart and societies getting something wonderful done.
Elizabeth Lesser
Some people, who are deeply involved in an organized, traditional religion, find it very difficult to accept that their way isn't the only way. And that their sacred text isn't the only text and it must be taken literally.
Elizabeth Lesser
The person who takes the first step in a conflict toward the other, those are brave people.

I think the main problem people have getting older, whether they know it or not, is that you're closer to dying. And we may fixate on not wanting to look a certain way, but it really is just the clock ticking, that it means, Oh, I am not immortal!.

May you listen to the voice within the beat even when you are tired. When you feel yourself breaking down, may you break open instead. May every experience in life be a door that opens your heart, expands your understanding and leads you to freedom.

My years as a mystic have made me question almost all my assumptions. They've made me a proud I-don't-know-it-all.
Elizabeth Lesser
I think as women and men become more conscious, the terms woman/man begin to lose meaning.
Elizabeth Lesser
We can be the one to take the first courageous step toward the other and to do something or to try to do something other than rejection or attack. We can do this with our siblings and our mates and our friends and our colleagues. We can do this with the disconnection and the discord all around us.
Elizabeth Lesser
When we slow down, quiet the mind, and allow ourselves to feel hungry for something that we do not understand, we are dipping into the abundant well of spiritual longing.
Elizabeth Lesser
First we forgive ourselves, then we forgive others and life itself.
Elizabeth Lesser
If you're interested in the door to the heavens opening, start with the door to your own secret self.
Elizabeth Lesser
I know that if we allow ourselves into the gridlock of tribalism, we're in trouble.
Elizabeth Lesser
I think it's better that people actually are saying what they feel. Especially, people are saying, I'm not heard. I don't have a voice in America.
Elizabeth Lesser
Even if your difficult time comes at you out of the blue - like cancer - even those times, opens your heart to the magic and power of life, and gives you this inner commitment to live every moment.
Elizabeth Lesser
Read any of the top-selling business books, all of them talk about moving away from a top down manner of leading to a more inclusive one. It's not happening over night, but if you read the winds of change in most of the democracies in the world we are moving toward shared levels of power.
Elizabeth Lesser
Spirituality is a brave search for the truth about existence, fearlessly peering into the mysterious nature of life.
