The Tao teaches us not to intervene and interfere. The things we love we have to learn to leave alone. And the people we love we have to learn to let them be.
— Wayne Dyer
I am particularly drawn to the form of meditation called Japa. I know it works.
Wanting to feel good is synonymous with wanting to feel God.
A person standing in front of an audience without enthusiasm for his subject and his actions is disconnected from his spirit.
Begin noticing and being careful about keeping your imagination free of thoughts that you do not wish to materialize. Instead, initiate a practice of filling your creative thoughts to overflow with ideas and wishes that you fully intend to manifest. Honor your imaginings regardless of others seeing them as crazy or impossible.
Your body has space within you that cannot die.
When I chased after money, I never had enough. When I got my life on purpose and focused on giving of myself and everything that arrived into my life, then I was prosperous.
A mind at peace, a mind centered and not focused on harming others, is stronger than any physical force in the universe.
The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don't know anything about.
Real magic in relationships means an absence of judgment of others.
You'll see it when you believe it.
You are doomed to make choices. This is life's greatest paradox.
It makes no sense to worry about things you have no control over because there's nothing you can do about them, and why worry about things you do control? The activity of worrying keeps you immobilized.
Everything you are against weakens you. Everything you are for empowers you.
Transformation literally means going beyond your form.
Only the insecure strive for security.
Everything in the universe has a purpose. Indeed, the invisible intelligence that flows through everything in a purposeful fashion is also flowing through you.
It's always interesting about God because it's like all of the religions in the world say that they pray to the same God, and yet they ask that same one God to divide itself up and agree with this one and fight against that one.
There's no substitute for the practice of meditation.
You can either be a host to God, or a hostage to your ego. It's your call.
Self-actualized people are independent of the good opinion of others.
Highly functioning self-actualized people simply never imagine what it is that they don't wish to have as their reality.
I grew up in the east side of Detroit in an area where there was very little, except for a lot of scarcity, poverty and hunger. I never woke up saying, 'I'm an orphan again today, isn't this terrible? Poor me.'
Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they choose for themselves without any insistence that they satisfy you.
You leave old habits behind by starting out with the thought, 'I release the need for this in my life'.
Your children will see what you're all about by what you live rather than what you say.
I think and that is all that I am.
Miracles come in moments. Be ready and willing.
When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor. It's to enjoy each step along the way.
Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life.
Begin to see yourself as a soul with a body rather than a body with a soul.
If you are living out of a sense of obligation you are slave.
Relationships based on obligation lack dignity.
Successful people make money. It's not that people who make money become successful, but that successful people attract money. They bring success to what they do.
I think that cancer is a life form that exists out there, and it exists in us. I think even the concept of healing is a spiritual principle that we have to really look at. I think the word itself is something we ought to get rid of, because it implies that there is illness - that there is something wrong.
Strong emotions such as passion and bliss are indications that you're connected to Spirit, or 'inspired,' if you will. When you're inspired, you activate dormant forces, and the abundance you seek in any form comes streaming into your life.
The presence of passion within you is the greatest gift you can receive. Treat it as a miracle.
I never sell a book. I sell myself. And the way to sell yourself is to be an instrument of love.
Remember that your imagination is yours and yours alone. You have the inborn capacity to use it in any way that you choose. No one else is responsible for your imagination. Anything placed in your imagination and held there ultimately becomes your reality.
We've been programmed, from the time that we were very, very little, about what we can't do - about what is impossible.
The fact that you are willing to say, 'I do not understand, and it is fine,' is the greatest understanding you could exhibit.
People who want the most approval get the least and people who need approval the least get the most.
If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
It's never crowded along the extra mile.
There is no way to prosperity, prosperity is the way.
What we think determines what happens to us, so if we want to change our lives, we need to stretch our minds.
Conflict cannot survive without your participation.
Everything you need you already have. You are complete right now, you are a whole, total person, not an apprentice person on the way to someplace else. Your completeness must be understood by you and experienced in your thoughts as your own personal reality.
Self-worth comes from one thing - thinking that you are worthy.
Our intention creates our reality.
