It's not them, it's you. It's not there, it's here. It's not then, it's now.

More quotes by Leonard Jacobson
Awakening is about liberating yourself from the prison that is the world of the mind and daring to be here as all that you are.
Leonard Jacobson
It disguises it’s thoughts as your thoughts, it’s feelings with your feelings, you think it’s you.
Leonard Jacobson
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
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.
Leonard Jacobson
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
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.
Leonard Jacobson
You get lost because you think there is somewhere to go. If you give up believing in a goal or a destination, then you cannot get lost. In the present moment, there is no destination.
Leonard Jacobson
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
In the awakened state of Presence, aloneness becomes all-oneness.
Leonard Jacobson
Everything that occurs in your life is an opportunity for awakening. There are no exceptions!
Leonard Jacobson
The underlying motivation that drives all addiction is our insistence on avoiding pain. However, the pain you are avoiding is based in the past, and has nothing to do with the present moment.
Leonard Jacobson
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
You can live in a house, but your real home is inside you.
Leonard Jacobson
Your gift to God is honesty. God's gift to you is truth.
Leonard Jacobson
The price of freedom is to allow freedom. Very few people are willing to pay the price.
Leonard Jacobson
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
You spend very little time in the present moment. Reality exists only in the present moment. Therefore you spend very little time in reality.
Leonard Jacobson
Beyond all experience is the one who is experiencing. Beyond all change is the One who never changes.
Leonard Jacobson
The very essence of your Being is infinite, eternal silence. It is your true nature. It is the essence of all existence.
Leonard Jacobson
The only moment ever available to you is the present moment. Everything else is memory or imagination.
