More quotes by Stephen Levine
Death is just a change in lifestyles.
Stephen Levine
You can call it wisdom, or sanity, or health, or enlightenment. I use the word God as a short-cut. I am comfortable with the word God because I don't have the foggiest idea of what it means.
Stephen Levine
Healing is bringing mercy and Awareness into that which we have held in judgment and fear.
Stephen Levine
Forgiveness is mental floss! Build the capacity to forgive slowly - start with little unkind acts, otherwise you'll sabotage yourself. When we forgive, we forgive the actor, not the action.
Stephen Levine
It doesn't matter how long you forget, only how soon you remember!
Stephen Levine
Oxygen plays a pivotal role in the proper functioning of the immune system. We can look at oxygen deficiency as the single greatest cause of all diseases.
Stephen Levine
If you want the other person more than anything else in the world, you're in major trouble and the relationship is a wobbly pivot. It's different if the thing you want most in the world is truth, and your partner is the person you want most in the world.
Stephen Levine
If you can find the God inside yourself, you can find the God inside everybody.
Stephen Levine
It is trust in our vast 'don't know' that allows room for the truth, that allows the next intuition to float to the surface.
Stephen Levine
Quoting son, Noah Levine: Once you see what the heart really needs, it doesn’t matter if you’re going to live or die, the work is always the same. (25)
Stephen Levine
If sequestered pain made a sound, the atmosphere would be humming all the time.
Stephen Levine
The demons aren't the noise. They are our aversion to the noise...when you can accept discomfort, doing so allows a balance of mind. That surrender, that letting go of wanting anything to be other than it is right in the moment, is what frees us from hell.
Stephen Levine
When we see all women as the divine mother and all men as the divine father, everyone you meet is sacred.
Stephen Levine
Our addiction to always being right is a great block to the truth. It keeps us from the kind of openness that comes from confidence in our natural wisdom.
Stephen Levine
Nothing is more natural than grief, no emotion more common to our daily experience. It's an innate response to loss in a world where everything is impermanent.
Stephen Levine
Death is perfectly safe. (55)
Stephen Levine
Much thought has at its root a dissatisfaction with what is. Wanting is the urge for the next moment to contain what this moment does not. When there is wanting in the mind, that moment feels incomplete. Wanting is seeing elsewhere. Completeness is being right here.
Stephen Levine
We've all been should upon enough.
Stephen Levine
When the heart acknowledges how much pain there is in the mind, it turns like a mother toward a frightened child.
Stephen Levine
Your distance from your partner is the distance from your heart. The things that make relationships difficult are some of the most precious aspects to us.
