Quotes

Emptiness, the ultimate nature of Dharmakaya, the Absolute Body, is not a simple nothingness. It possesses intrinsically the faculty of knowing all phenomena. This faculty is the luminous or cognitive aspect of the Dharmakaya, whose expression is spontaneous. The Dharmakaya is not the product of causes and conditions; it is the original nature of mind.

- Dilgo Khyenste Rinpoche

Quotes

"Spiritual maturity lies in the readiness to let go of everything.  The giving up is the first step.  But the real giving up is in realizing that there is nothing to give up, for nothing is your own. It is like deep sleep--you do not give up your bed when you fall asleep, you just forget about it"

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj

Self

"Find out to whom is Viyoga. That is yoga. Yoga is common to all paths. Yoga is really nothing but ceasing to think that you are different from the Self or Reality. All the yogas - karma, jnana, bhakti and raja - are just different paths to suit different natures with different modes of evolution and to get them out of the long cherished notion that they are different from the Self. There is no question of union or yoga in the sense of going and joining something that is somewhere away from us or different from us, because you never were or could be separate from the Self."

~ Sri Ramana Maharshi.

Ramana says:

"The highest siddhi is realization of the Self, for once you realize the truth you cease to be drawn to the path of ignorance."
