fear never-fear
You must never fear anything at all.
inspirational hurt fear
How would you feel if you had no fear? Feel like that. How would you behave toward other people if you realized their powerlessness to hurt you? Behave like that. How would your react to so-called misfortune if you saw its inability to bother you? React like that. How would you think toward yourself if you knew you were really all right? Think like that.
carefully cause law
Stucy carefully the law of cause and effect.
happiness liberty unhappy
Happiness is liberty from everything that makes us unhappy.
inspirational law people
It is against the law to permit weak people to steal your strength. Never permit it.
change loss
Change is never a loss - it is change only.
fall men relaxation
A cheery relaxation is man's natural state, just as nature itself is relaxed. A waterfall is concerned only with being itself, not with doing something it considers waterfall-like.
spiritual teacher fall
The Truth must be told at all costs, no matter how unpopular it may be. The authentic spiritual leader, having freed himself of his own false need to be popular, tells the Truth whether it falls on fertile or stony ground. Such a teacher is the salt of the earth, though few know it. If you think the world is delirious as is, you would find it intolerable without his healing influence.
time needs can-do
You need only choose ... then keep choosing as many times as necessary. That is all you need do. And it is certainly something you can do. Then as you continue to choose, everything is yours.
law causes study
Study carefully the law of cause and effect.
freedom kingdoms realizing
We clearly realize that freedom's inner kingdom cannot be touched by exterior attacks.
regret mistake past
The power of the present moment is so immense it is capable - when lived in fully - of destroying forever every past mistake and regret.
moving secret mind
You see everything depends upon the psychological headquarters from which we live. 'Where am I living from?' Ask yourself that question. If you don't like your headquarters, you can move any time you like. Break away. Don't tell anyone about it. Others will either smile tolerantly or mouth sanctimonious babble. Make your escape plans in secret. Never mind if you lose certain friends, you will find others who also have dared. They will be ten-thousand times more valuable to you.
movement outcomes bitterness
Bitterness is the outcome of a wrong mental movement - the attempt to force external events to conform to internal fantasy. The cure is to see fantasy as fantasy, which will reveal it as neither necessary nor rewarding.
