Quotes from Rupert Spira

The greatest discovery in life is to discover that our essential nature does not share the limits nor the destiny of the body and mind.

Time is the eternal now, seen through the narrow slit of the mind.

Happiness is simply to allow everything to be exactly as it is from moment to moment.

We don't have to wait for the right circumstances to have happiness.

Love is the natural condition of all experience before thought has divided it into a multiplicity and diversity of objects, selves and others.

Love is the experience that others are not others. Beauty is the experience that objects are not objects.

When feeling is divested of the feeler and the felt, it shines as love; when seeing is divested of the seer and the seen, it shines as beauty.

Many of our ideas and beliefs about ourselves and the world are so deeply ingrained that we are unaware that they are beliefs and take them, without question, for the absolute truth.

In ignorance, I am something; in understanding, I am nothing; in love, I am everything.

Give your attention to the experience of seeing rather than to the object seen and you will find yourself everywhere.
