“When we hear our inner voice and follow it, we can walk our own path.”
― Ilchi Lee, The Call of Sedona: Journey of the Heart

“You can't expect not to face obstacles in life.
When people meet, their different energies conflict.
Where there is no energy, there is no conflict and wher there is no conflict, there is no creation.
Conflict is the source of creation.
One needs to know how to powerfully embrace the tension that arises when opposing energies meet, when there's conflict and struggle.”
― Ilchi Lee, The Call of Sedona: Journey of the Heart

“Even when we have realized oneness and nothingness, we still have our personal lives to manage, bodies to take care of, and mouths to feed, and you will know which one is yours and which ones are others', so you won't put food into another person's mouth when you are hungry. Also you won't kiss a rattlesnake or hug a cactus no matter how strong an affinity you feel toward them. But at the same time, we know these apparent separations are functional, not fundamental, and should be recognized as such without mistaking one for the other. I would call this apparent separation "functional ego," or you can call it your "character," which is the collection of your beliefs, habits, and other people's expectations.”

“Change is the very nature of Nature. if there's one thing that doesn't change, it is the fact that everything changes. In the Korean tradition of Tao, this is called impermanence. The teaching about impermanence can be summarized like this: Anything that has a beginning must have an end. Anything that is created will change. Impermanence is the very nature of things. Realizing that nothing is permanent is the true beginning of enlightenment. Suffering comes from attachment that wants to hold something permanently that is not permanent in its intrinsic nature. Awakening to the truth of impermanence frees you from attachment.”
