“If peace is really what you want, then you will choose peace. If peace mattered to you more than anything else and if you truly knew yourself to be spirit rather than little me, you would remain non-reactive and absolutely alert when confronted with challenging people or situations.”

“[through nonresistance, nonjudgment, and non-attatchment] you can participate in the dance of creation and be active without attachment to outcome and without placing unreasonable demands upon the world: fulfil me, make me happy, make me feel safe, tell me who I am.
