“Consciousness is everything—never forget this. Consciousness is absolute reality, pure awareness and pure awareness is Brahman. If you could only realize that consciousness is everything, you’d be at peace and you’d be very happy.

For consciousness is peace, love, God, bliss. And if you remember that you are consciousness, and so is everything else, how can you be sad or upset or depressed or feel there’s a problem going on?

It’s virtually impossible to have a problem of any kind when you consider and ponder that consciousness is everything. Everything, everyone, every situation, no thing is apart from consciousness. But when you know that consciousness is bliss, nothing will ever disturb you again.

Whatever your eyes behold, whatever your ears hear, wherever you are, wherever you go, realize that consciousness is all of these things. Everything is consciousness, everything! Again, this means that everything is harmony. Everything is good. Everything is perfect, just the way it is!”

~ Robert Adams (20th century American Advaita mystic)
