More quotes by 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
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
Projecting into the future with hopes, dreams and desires can never fulfill you. Only the present moment can fulfill you.
Leonard Jacobson
The only moment ever available to you is the present moment. Everything else is memory or imagination.
Leonard Jacobson
When you awaken, you will see that this is Heaven on Earth, and everything in physical form is the body of God.
Leonard Jacobson
If you fully awaken, you will not know yourself. Understand this, and you will understand all.
Leonard Jacobson
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.
Leonard Jacobson
We are on a journey of becoming that which we already are. That is the impossible paradox of our lives.
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
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
Your gift to God is honesty. God's gift to you is truth.
Leonard Jacobson
Everything that occurs in your life is an opportunity for awakening. There are no exceptions!
Leonard Jacobson
To live a present and awakened life, simply be responsive to the moment. It is very simple. If you are hungry, eat. If you are thirsty, drink. If you are lonely, call a friend for tea. If you are overwhelmed with too much company, then get away by yourself.
Leonard Jacobson
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
When you are truly present, you illuminate everything around you.
Leonard Jacobson
You can be sad for others but you don't have to take on their pain.
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
In the awakened state of Presence, aloneness becomes all-oneness.
Leonard Jacobson
Each new moment presents an opportunity for conscious choice. We can choose to let go of the past. We can choose to be here now. We can choose to accept responsibility for ourselves. . . . We can choose to awaken. Or we can choose to remain asleep and unconscious.
Leonard Jacobson
Beyond all experience is the one who is experiencing. Beyond all change is the One who never changes.
