More quotes by Gangaji
All of the searching, all of the struggling, all of the efforting to find your true self is naturally revealed in open, relaxed simplicity.
Gangaji
The secret gem of truth has been hidden in the core of your own heart all along. My invitation is to stop all movement of your mind away from truth so that you can discover directly, for yourself, this jewel that is alive within you.
Gangaji
Even in the running away from hurting, there is hurting. In opening unprotected to the experience that is enslaving you with its torment, there is the willingness to be free.” Are you willing? Or do you just want towait until the world finally gets it and does it your way?
Gangaji
I'm not suggesting that you have to overcome your fear of death. But we have to be willing to recognize at any moment, death could come.
Gangaji
Love has nothing to do with another person. Love is Truth. Love is Beauty. Love is Self. To know yourself, to surrender to the truth of yourself, is to surrender to love.
Gangaji
You cannot be happy unless you are serving the truth of your being, however that service looks.
Gangaji
The love that you search for everywhere is already present within you. It may be evoked by any number of people or events. But finally, you must realize you are this love. The source of all love is within you.
Gangaji
Fear is about survival. When you drop under that and experience the fear without trying to change it, just letting it be, then it becomes still. When you open your heart to fear, rather than trying to fight it or deny it or even overcome it, then you find it is just energy.
Gangaji
Fulfillment has nothing to do with circumstances.
Gangaji
The choiceless truth of who you are is revealed to be permanently here permeating everything. Not a thing and not separate from anything.
Gangaji
In a sacred moment, when attention is pulled inward, rather than continuing in its usual outward direction, silence is realized.
Gangaji
You are here. However you imagine yourself to be, you are here. Imagine yourself as a body, you are here. Imagine yourself as God, you are here. Imagine yourself as worthless, superior, nothing at all, you are still here. My suggestion is that you stop all imagining, here.
Gangaji
Need nothing and then see what happens.
Gangaji
I'm a student of history and know that civilizations get lost - they are born and die - and so I recognize the tender mortality of our civilization. I'm not saying I'm separate from the despair of that, but I'm not controlled by the despair of that.
Gangaji
I could see that everything I had identified as really me, was not really me, but was just a pattern of strategies to avoid some kind of abyss or emptiness.
Gangaji
If you are willing to take an instant to withdraw attention from whatever your internal dialogue is, to withdraw energy from whatever the latest point of view about your suffering is, it is immediately obvious what is here: the fullness, the richness and the love of oneself as conscious life.
Gangaji
My responsibility is simply being who I am and not buying into any projection as real. No projection is finally real, but projection does play a very important role.
Gangaji
The word God, to me, is like the word enlightenment. It's become so corrupted by our ideas of what God is.
Gangaji
When you are willing to stop looking for something in thought, you find everything in silence.
Gangaji
But somehow in identifying myself as the healer, there was still a seed of both self-righteousness and defense from a kind of emptiness.
