Hi friend,

1. "Become aware of space within and without… that's the essence of all spirituality." {from Practice #1, "Sitting Quietly"}
    
2. "There's more than what sensory perception tells you… there is a dimension in every object that goes beyond what you can perceive with your senses." {from Practice #2, "Awareness of Objects"}
   
   
3. "To give attention to an animal like a dog is a way of coming into the present moment and becoming free of the ego." {From Practice #6, "Presence with Animals"}
   
   
4. "Everything is ultimately mysterious and deep, but when you mistake a concept or a sequence of sounds for what it is, then the world is no longer deep… and it loses its aliveness." {from Practice #7, "Connecting with Nature"}
   
   
5. "To be aware of your breath reduces the amount of thinking you do. You take consciousness away from what it is usually absorbed by, which is the stream of thinking." {from Practice #8, "Breath Awareness"}
   
   
6. "The moment you notice silence, your mind becomes still." {from Practice #9, "Awareness of Sounds and Silence"}

8. "Inner-body awareness is one of the most important practices for becoming free of being trapped in the largely unconscious thought processes that most people are burdened by." {from Practice #11, "Inner-Body Awareness"}
