    “A thought is harmless unless we believe it. It’s not our thoughts, but our attachment to our thoughts, that causes suffering. Attaching to a thought means believing that it’s true, without inquiring. A belief is a thought that we’ve been attaching to, often for years...I still love what I think but I'm never tempted to believe it."
    ~ Byron Katie

    "There are two main symptoms of enlightenment, two indications that a transformation is taking place within you toward a higher consciousness. The first symptom is that you stop worrying.

And this accelerates to the point where you actually experience the miraculous."
    ~ Deepak Chopra

    ~ Osho

    “What I am really saying is that you don’t need to do anything, because if you see yourself in the correct way, you are all as much extraordinary phenomena of nature as trees, clouds, the patterns in running water, the flickering of fire, the arrangement of the stars, and the form of a galaxy. You are all just like that, and there is nothing wrong with you at all.”
