Don’t think life to death—just surrender. Surrender to love. Surrender in Love and as Love.
Divine Dancing
Quote
Every inspiration or command from God comes complete with the timing, the mood, the energy, everything you need to carry it out. Human beings are dancers, and their right responsibility is to dance with God and follow God’s lead in the dance. When you dance with God, God tells you when to spin, and gives you the energy to spin with, and the feeling to spin with.
Everything needed for a successful twirling is given with the twirling command, everything.
Behind every divine inspiration comes a cosmically refined sense of timing that embraces unspeakably subtle and complex considerations and energy, mood, tone, timing. No human can hope to embody such refined discernments. To obey is the only way.
Getting Drunk On Life

The Best Thing In the World
Quote
The best thing is for people not to get massages, go out to dinner, or even pray and meditate. Best to try to figure out what’s true and needful within the most ordinary of circumstances. Because in the end, the best thing in the world is the God-consciousness that is native in the individual, and when you go out there seeking after something, you tend to miss that.
The Deeper Walk
Quote
The deeper walk in relationship starts with you being deeper. Find your heart. From there, make your approach to people.
It is you that is deep. It is you that has this heart of depth, meaning, significance, tenderness, interest, and passion. So, just by being you, just by settling in to your reality, you are in a deeper walk in relationship—because you are in relationship, deeply.
The Test of Real Spirituality

Arranging Priorities for Love
Quote
Why is love unfulfilled? Because someone has placed something above it. We’ve got to make love first to make it last. Love succeeds only when it is our top priority, for “no man can serve two masters.” Everything that is less than love must someday be abandoned. Such is the way of the heart. This is the destiny of all, simply because nothing less than love will do.
Togetherness for Healing
Quote
When I withdraw, I feel the pain of separation immediately. When I regroup, I go out to all the people; that is my regrouping. It is completely happy for me to know that you all are my salvation. It is not negative dependency, but pure relief.
What you call without, I call within. And I go to without whenever I’m tired, whenever my nerves are on edge, whenever I feel separated and difficult, and it fixes me. And then maybe I’m strong enough to stand another bout of being by myself.
