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.

As you transition from the past and future world of the mind to the awakened world of now, you will begin to experience yourself in an entirely new way. A way that is free of the pain and limitations of the past, and free of anxiety about the future. And you will begin to experience the abundance that is ever present in each moment.

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.

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
There is no greater power than the power of love, which arises from Presence. It overcomes all resistance.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
You cannot be present in an abstract way. Presence is not about disappearing into nothingness. You can only be present with something that is actually here.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
The only moment ever available to you is the present moment. Everything else is memory or imagination.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
In the present moment, you are beyond all definition. This means that you are no longer defined by the pain and limitations of the past. You are no longer defined by your judgments, opinions or beliefs nor are you defined by the judgment, opinions or beliefs of others.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
Your gift to God is honesty. God's gift to you is truth.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
In the awakened state, the mind is either perfectly silent or it is a perfectly clear instrument of expression.
Leonard Jacobson
Image
You can be sad for others but you don't have to take on their pain.
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.

Projecting into the future with hopes, dreams and desires can never fulfill you. Only the present moment can fulfill you.

I cannot tell you anything that you don't already know, but it is known in silence.
