“To desire a state is to have it.”
― Neville Goddard, The Law: And Other Essays on Manifestation

“The source of suffering is a false belief in permanence and the existence of separate selves.”
― Thích Nhất Hạnh, Old Path White Clouds: The Life Story of the Buddha

“Everything in the universe is created by our own mind. Our mind is the source of all phenomena. Form, sound, smell, taste, and tactile perception such as hot and cold, hard and soft—these are all creations of our mind. They do not exist as we usually think they do. Our consciousness is like an artist, painting every phenomenon into being. Once you have attained the state of the realm of no materiality, you will have succeeded. The realm of no materiality is the state in which we see that no phenomenon exists outside of our own mind.”
― Thích Nhất Hạnh, Old Path White Clouds: The Life Story of the Buddha

“If we lose the present moment, we lose life.”
― Thich Nhat Hanh, Old Path White Clouds: Walking in the Footsteps of the Buddha
