Ken Keyes Jr.

Ken Keyes Jr.
When you accept yourself completely you do not have to maintain a phony front, drive yourself to ''achieve'' or feel insecure if people tune-in to you and what you are doing.
Ken Keyes Jr.

Ken Keyes Jr.
The outside conditions of your life do not make you feel either secure or insecure. One person may feel secure with practically no money at all, while another may feel insecure with a million dollars in the bank. Your feelings of security or insecurity are due to your emotional programming.
Ken Keyes Jr.
I am constantly aware of which of the Seven Centres of Consciousness I am using and I feel my energy, perceptiveness, love and inner peace growing as I open all of the centres of consciousness.
Ken Keyes Jr.
If your washing machine stops working and you're addicted to appliances that work, you'll get upset and you will suffer. If you prefer that your appliances work well, then when your washing machine breaks down you won't compound the problem by superimposing your uncomfortable emotions on the situation.
Ken Keyes Jr.
We are not the personalities that our egos are so valiantly defending. Our personalities are simply the result of our current programming.
Ken Keyes Jr.
Happiness is experienced when your life gives you what you are willing to accept.
Ken Keyes Jr.
Acceptance doesn't mean that you've resigned yourself to live the rest of your life with a particular person, or in a particular situation. It just means that you won't cause yourself emotional discomfort because of the way things are in this moment.
Ken Keyes Jr.
I open myself genuinely to all people by being willing to fully communicate my deepest feelings, since hiding in any degree keep me stuck in my illusion of separateness from other people.
Ken Keyes Jr.
No one that ever lived has ever had enough power, prestige, or knowledge to overcome the basic condition of all life - you win some and you lose some.
Ken Keyes Jr.
Love means tearing down the separateness and the boundaries between your heart feelings and another person.
Ken Keyes Jr.
We see things not as they are, but as we are. Your addictions distort how you process the enormous flow of information that is constantly flooding in through all of your sensory inputs.
Ken Keyes Jr.
