Getting Along


When we can’t get along with someone, we like to blame it on that person’s faults: Stupidity, incompetence, outrageous actions, aggression or some other evil.

The real reason is none of these. It is that the world is broken, and we are the shattered fragments.

And all that stops us from coming back together is that we each imagine ourselves to be whole.

Gradual Truth


In life, you don't get all the answers at once.

First you must absorb and live with one simple truth. Then later you must find another truth --one that may seem to conflict with and negate all you previously learned. Then, from that confusion, emerges a higher truth --the inner light behind all you had learned before.
