When the student is ready, the teacher will appear everywhere and in everything. Once this studentship is realised, then the path extends in all directions and to all moments. Then there is nowhere to hide, and self-deception becomes evident. But we have to be wise and we have to look to the wise because it is so easy to be deceived.

Do not be afraid of fear. Learn to recognise it, learn to befriend it and don’t be in a rush to transcend it. If we do not address fear, it may grow large and monstrous in the shadows of our ignorance. Our fears may lie in wait, getting to know us so they can catch us off guard, slowly conquering and overcoming us. Feel everything—don’t let any of it linger. Recognise that it all passes.

Finding your calling is the reception of the moment that is given, yet it is often so hard for us to receive. It is hard to receive because we are resistant to yielding to the moment. We are resistant to yield to the moment because we are always chasing a future or reliving a past. In doing so, we become distracted from the present.

If you look back at yourself, your parents, your society, and say, "I am healing my lineage," it is noble. If you yourself are healed through this purification of presence, then there is no agenda to take up that noble sword to cut the malignancy from the lines, and in that radiant presence, the lines are purified. Because it is you who carries the burden, and if you are clear of the idea of yourself carrying the burden, the load is lightened.

On the medicine path, deeper immersion leads to a greater appreciation of the places we've visited and the spaces that have impacted us. We learn the technology and language involved, come to respect its complex ecology and it becomes crucial to learn how to translate this knowledge. The new language we acquire differs from our own, gifting us perspective and teaching us to look differently.

Wherever we go in our life, whatever we do, no matter how far we travel, we must always remember that we are not separate from nature. Nature is our being.

True freedom is allowing all phenomena to be exactly as they are. To let everything be just as it is. Coming and going, arising and passing away.

What is known is only relative to our position, to our experience. We think we know the colour of something, yet someone else sees it slightly differently. We think we know the speed of something, yet from a distant nebula, that speed is something else. We think we know the view of the great Milky Way, yet we only look from one tiny perspective.

Spiritual bypassing is like painting over rust: it may look fine on the surface, but the corrosion continues underneath. True spirituality isn't an escape route from life's challenges or a licence to neglect responsibilities. It's a deep engagement with reality, in all its messiness.

Life will show you where you are hiding, where you are running from life, where you fear the end of life and risk ignoring the outcome then continue to pursue ignorance. Realisation awakens you from the dream of ignorance, which means simply not to know, or even to know but to ignore the fact.

The realisation of impermanence is not a philosophical one. It is embodied at the cellular level of our being and experienced with such finery that it serves to shift our dimension of seeing in such a way that any rigidity is carried into the river.

Abiding in the present moment is abiding in the presence of the moment. It is a living radiance, a vibrancy that can happen nowhere else. The only place where you will ever be alive is this present moment.

Just as an actor assumes many roles throughout their career, we each don an array of identities throughout our lives. These identities, like the costumes of an actor, change according to the scenes we play out on the stage of life.

When you enter into this presence, it starts to work on you. It’s a purifying process, like submerging in freshwater and scrubbing yourself clean of yourself. There is no effort needed on behalf of your intelligence or body. It happens by itself when left alone, without your involvement, without your interference.

When all fades away, what is left is the ground of being. Its ground is groundless. Its language is wordless silence. And its movement is stillness.
