Image
One of the great dangers on the spiritual path is that the ego becomes spiritualized. The ego loves to think of itself as spiritually evolved. It is just another way that it manages to feel important and in control. It is very difficult to free yourself from an enlightened ego.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
If you really know how to ask the question 'Who am I?' you will inevitably be delivered into that state of silence and pure consciousness that is your true Being. The question 'Who am I?' will ultimately deliver you into the 'I am' of you.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
Your gift to God is honesty. God's gift to you is truth.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
When you awaken, you will see that this is Heaven on Earth, and everything in physical form is the body of God.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
We are on a journey of becoming that which we already are. That is the impossible paradox of our lives.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
Me, me, me! Mine, mine, mine! I'm right, I'm right, I'm right. What's in it for me? How do I use this? How do I take advantage of it? This is the way of the ego. Own this within yourself and you will begin to release yourself from it.

Image
In the awakened state of Presence, aloneness becomes all-oneness.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
If you fully awaken, you will not know yourself. Understand this, and you will understand all.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
It is far wiser to ask for a question than an answer. When you think you have all the answers, it simply means you have run out of questions.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
Every moment you are present, there is a little less darkness in our world.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
The only moment ever available to you is the present moment. Everything else is memory or imagination.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
What are you going to do? Are you going to keep looking backwards, full of anger, resentment and unfulfilled desire. Or are you going to be here now. Because everything is available for you in the here and now. Love, compassion, silence, bliss and Oneness.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
It disguises it’s thoughts as your thoughts, it’s feelings with your feelings, you think it’s you.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
When you are fully present, you transcend duality and open into Oneness. In Presence, there is power without opposition. There is love without hate, acceptance without judgment and allowing without control.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
If your commitment is to being present, then there will come a time when being present becomes your natural state. The present moment becomes your home. You will have short excursions into the world of the mind, but you never go so far into the mind that you get lost there.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
True power arises in knowing what you want, knowing what you don't want, expressing it clearly and lovingly without attachment to the outcome.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
It is a mistake to imagine that you can awaken in any kind of permanent way. There is only NOW and so you can only be awake now. Even the idea of permanence is an illusion. The question to ask is 'Am I awake and fully present NOW?' That question arises and is answered in perfect silence.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
It's not them, it's you. It's not there, it's here. It's not then, it's now.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
The more awake you are, the less there is of you here. At the very deepest level of Presence, you have disappeared and only God is.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
How does silence find its way out of that noisy, chattering mind? That endless maze of thought, concept, opinion, belief? How does perfect silence and pure consciousness find its way out of that maze? Very simply: Bring yourself present with something that's HERE, in the moment. Then you'll be HERE again.
