“When you are present, when your attention is fully in the Now, the Presence flows in and transforms what you do. It will have quality and power.
You are present when what you do is primarily not a means of achieving the goal (money, prestige, prize), but fulfillment in itself, when there is joy and liveliness in what you do.”
“When your attention moves to the Now, there is alertness. It is as if you are waking up from the dream of thought, from the dream of the past and the future. Such purity, such simplicity.”
“When you listen to the thought, you feel a conscious presence—your deeper self—behind or beneath the thought, as it were. This is the beginning of the end of involuntary and compulsive thinking.”
