As a peaceful warrior, I would choose when, where and how I would behave. With that commitment, I began to live the life of a warrior.

Faith means living with uncertainty - feeling your way through life, letting your heart guide you like a lantern in the dark.

There are no ordinary moments.

I was a world champion on the trampoline at an international level, and gymnastics competitor.

Saints were saints because they acted with loving kindness whether they felt like it or not.

Unless someone truly has the power to say no, they never truly have the power to say yes.

There are times, you know, it's said in the Spiritual Tradition, just a glimpse at an enlightened personage can convey immense information at the sub-conscious level that sprouts later, that we don't even know.

You don't just have a story - you're a story in the making, and you never know what the next chapter's going to be. That's what makes it exciting.

Yes, I did shatter my leg, and it really changed my life, in a way. It wasn't much fun, but it did open me up, and as we all know intuitively, adversity can develop resources.

Act happy, feel happy, be happy, without a reason in the world. Then you can love, and do what you will.

Life comes at us in waves. We can't predict or control those waves, but we can learn to surf

Money is neither my god nor my devil. It is a form of energy that tends to make us more of who we already are, whether it's greedy or loving.

Resistance creates suffering. Stress happens when your mind resists what is. The only problem in your life is your mind's resistance to life as it unfolds.

When a man has learned to live without money, he thought, a few rubles can go a long way.

Bad people dont go to hell they are already there.

Looking back we see with great clarity and what once appeared as difficulties now reveal themselves as blessings.

When we feel stuck, going nowhere-even starting to slip backward-we may actually be backing up to get a running start.

Life is constantly supporting us and giving us gifts. It's a matter of opening ourselves to that.

If you face just one opponent, and you doubt yourself, you're out-numbered

Consciousness is not in the body the body is in consciousness. And you are that consciousness.

The secret to change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old but on building the new.

Willpower is the key to success. Successful people strive no matter what they feel by applying their will to overcome apathy, doubt or fear.

A warrior does not give up what he loves, he finds the love in what he does.

You don't have to control your thoughts. You just have to stop letting them control you.

We're immersed in the spirit of God all the time. We just don't notice.

I kind of got more interested in writing after I turned in my last college essay and nobody was going to tell me what kind of academic papers to write anymore. I could write whatever I wanted, and I realized that I actually liked it when I could choose what I would write.

Choice means saying no to one thing so you can say yes to another.

We all have the archetype inside us of the enlightened being.

When you release your expectations that the world should fulfill you, your disappointments vanish.

Everything you'll ever need to know is within you; the secrets of the universe are imprinted on the cells of your body.

You don’t have to control your thoughts. You just have to stop letting them control you.

I have an almost religious zeal... not for technology per se, but for the Internet which is for me, the nervous system of mother Earth, which I see as a living creature, linking up.

You dont have to control your thoughts. You just have to stop letting them control you.

I learned that we can do anything, but we can't do everything... at least not at the same time. So think of your priorities not in terms of what activities you do, but when you do them. Timing is everything.
