The more time we spend considering the shortcomings of others, the smaller a person we become.
Guy Finley
Image
Who you really are, your True Nature, is no more tied to the kind of person you've been than the wind is tied to the skies through which it moves.
Guy Finley
Image
It's a paradox of the true spiritual path, but the more conscious we become of what limits us, the more limitless becomes our life.
Guy Finley
Image
Real change isn't found in some new way to think about yourself, but in freedom from the need to think about yourself at all.
Guy Finley
Image
If we only knew how many times our seemingly clever comment cut straight into the heart of the person with whom we have just spoken, it is we who would bleed.
Guy Finley
Image
No condition outside ourselves can create a rut or trap us in it. It's impossible.
Guy Finley
Image
Make it your moment-to-moment aim to recognize the difference between being aware of your thoughts, and being carried along by them.
