Text Quotes
For an advanced preceiver, the play of life is to assemble and reassemble the self in alternate realities of which this is one  (The Self Quotes) There’s a different film being made in every mind. And of course, the star of the film is the mind, the personality, the self  (The Self Quotes) You have thousands of selves inside you. Meditation is a process of peeling back the layers of the self. We start with peeling back the personality from this lifetime  (The Self Quotes) The trap of the self is the trap that causes unhappiness. We define ourselves too much; whereas the infinite, the pure radiant spirit, is not so definable  (The Self Quotes) Meditation is a process of liquefying the self temporarily and then allowing the self to rebind. The ice melts and then it comes back again  (The Self Quotes) As we go within the self, we discover that all the voices of our past lives are still there. As we peel ourselves, which is a process very much like peeling an onion, we discover that there are many selves within the self  (The Self Quotes) The self plays among the waves of existence. It surfaces, it comes up for a while, and then it disappears again  (The Self Quotes) The dreams of the self are manifold and endless and they exist in all the myriad worlds and conditions that appear to have solidity. When you’re dreaming at night, something seems very real, but when you wake up the dream is gone and so is all that apparent solidity  (The Self Quotes) Imagine that it’s not about the self and its concerns, about ‘what’s in it for me,’ whether that be a blessed afterlife or prosperity in this life  (The Self Quotes) Life is the beginning of death. Life is for the sake of death. Death is at once the end and the beginning-at once separation and closer union of the self. Through death the reduction is complete  (The Self Quotes) This solidity is not true. The apparent solidity is the delusion of the senses and of the self. Everything is made up of infinite, intelligent light  (The Self Quotes) Reincarnation is the dissolution of the self. It’s like going swimming in the ocean, no one ever comes out, because one has become the ocean  (The Self Quotes) When you die you pass into inner worlds and continue to perceive. Death is not the dissolution of the self. Death is rather just a change in perception  (The Self Quotes) The impression somehow prevails that the true believer, particularly the religious individual, is a humble person. The truth is that the surrendering and humbling of the self breeds pride and arrogance  (The Self Quotes) The revulsion from an unwanted self, and the impulse to forget it, mask it, slough it off and lose it, produce both a readiness to sacrifice the self and a willingness to dissolve it by losing one’s individual distinctness in a compact collective whole  (The Self Quotes) You don’t want to see things as they are because your ego would have to admit that things outside yourself are necessary for the self to be. You still have fun, as most people do, from manipulating things  (The Self Quotes) I encourage all you superior seekers in the secret depths to devote yourselves to penetrating and clarifying the self, as earnestly as you would put out a fire on the top of your head  (The Self Quotes) I have a clear view of 12 years of history of my inner self. First the cramped self, that self with big blinkers, then the disappearance of the blinkers and the self, now gradually the reemergence of a self without blinkers  (The Self Quotes) The activities of drawing, eating and drinking, all involve assimilations by the self of desirable elements from the world, a transfer of goodness from without to within  (The Self Quotes) The common trait of all evil is nothing other than egoism... Basically all human evil comes from what we call the selfishness  (The Self Quotes) Decide to forgive: For resentment is negative; resentment is poisoning; resentment diminishes and devours the self  (The Self Quotes) Above all, anger needs to be felt so it can be talked through, understood and integrated, rather than acted out. In this way, it cleanses the self  (The Self Quotes) Appearance is the most public part of the self. It is our sacrament, the visible self that the world assumes to be a mirror of the invisible, inner self  (The Self Quotes) It’s strange how deserts turn us into believers. I believe in walking in a landscape of mirages, because you learn humility. I believe in living in a land of little water because life is drawn together. And I believe in the gathering of bones as a testament to spirits that have moved on. If the desert is holy, it is because it is a forgotten place that allows us to remember the sacred. Perhaps that is why every pilgrimage to the desert is a pilgrimage to the self  (The Self Quotes) To understand oneself requires patience, tolerant awareness; the self is a book of many volumes which you cannot read in a day, but when once you begin to read, you must read every word, every sentence, every paragraph for in them are the intimations of the whole. The beginning of it is the ending of it. If you know how to read, supreme wisdom is to be found  (The Self Quotes) Buddha indicated that the self, that part of you that incarnates from lifetime to lifetime was causal  (The Self Quotes) It is through many lifetimes of shifting the aggregate of the self that one finally reaches a point of maximum velocity whereby one can snap off the circle completely and move into freedom  (The Self Quotes) The miracle of enlightenment is that you take the self and let it dissolve in the white light of eternity  (The Self Quotes) I’m not a fan of the selfie. I think it’s at the heart of the narcissism that social media brings into our lives  (The Self Quotes) Now, here is the point about the self: it is insatiable. It is always, always hankering. It is what you might call rapacious to a fault. The great flaming mouth to the thing is never in this world going to be stuff full  (The Self Quotes)
