It's easy to become an automaton who gets up, works hard, even does spiritual practices, but all merely as a mechanical habit. You can easily get the idea that your spiritual work, or whatever you are doing, is all-important and that you must give your life to it, while at the same time you forget what "giving your life to it" actually means. Then you can become even more mechanical than you already are (if such a thing is conceivable), but in a different form.
Lee Lozowick
We often talk about "wanting to be spiritual," but being spiritual and taking care of our everyday affairs are exactly the same thing. There is no difference. With clarity we become ordinary - simply taking care of whatever comes before us. In this process, we develop trust that whatever shows up in our lives, we will meet it.
Jacob Liberman
True freedom is an inward state of being. Once it is attained, no situation in the world can bind one or limit one's freedom.
