Do not believe what the world tells you, what the newspapers tell you, what the TV tells you. Separate yourself from all these things. Become free from attachments. The world in itself is neither good nor bad. It is an appearance. You can play in the universe, you can suffer in the universe. It’s all how you see it.

Do not react to it, whether you’re going through good times or bad times. They’re both impostors. Look to your Self. You are the one. … You are beyond words and thoughts, beyond gods and goddesses, beyond everything and anything that you can ever think about.

Robert Adams
