To see Reality is as simple as to see one’s face in a mirror. Only, the mirror must be clear and true. A quiet mind, undistorted by desires and fears, free from ideas and opinions, clear on all the levels, is needed to reflect the Reality. Be clear and quiet alert and detached, all else will happen by itself.

But first of all you must attend to the way you feel, think and live. Unless there is order in yourself, there can be no order in the world.
