“Having gone beyond the mind-made opposites, you become like a deep lake. The outer situation of your life and whatever happens there is the surface of the lake. Sometimes calm, sometimes windy and rough, according to the cycles and seasons. Deep down, however, the lake is always undisturbed. You are the whole lake, not just the surface, and you are in touch with your own depth, which remains absolutely still.
You don't resist change by mentally clinging to any situation. Your inner peace does not depend on it.”
- The Power of Now
I am almost done with this book. I highly recommend it to anyone, but I specifically recommend it to anyone who can’t find meaning in life, are quick to anger or become annoyed, or who seem to be controlled by their emotions.
