• The power of our Muse lies in her meaninglessness. Even the style can turn one into a slave if one does not run away from it, and then one is doomed to repeat oneself.

It will express itself less in the fear of doing the same thing over again than in the desire not to go where one has already been.

• Our illusions-the beliefs we hold on to-are the very doorways to our freedom. We simply have to enter through them without grasping or pushing away. We must not believe them, but we must not run away from them either. We need to see each moment of apparent bondage as an invitation to freedom. Then it becomes an act of love, an act of compassion, to stop running away.

  Adyashanti

• Like how could you do nothing,
  and say, 'I'm doing my best.'
  How could you take almost everything,
  and then come back for the rest?
  How could you beg me to stay,
  reach out your hands and plead,
  and then pack up your eyes and run away
  as soon as I agreed?
