"Whenever you are extremely upset about something, ask yourself:
- Is there something I need here?
- Is there something I need to know here?
- Is there something I need to do here? Three questions." [1]
"When you get on board a bus or a conveyance or around other people, do not judge and evaluate them. Just watch and listen. Ask yourself:
- What am I looking at here? And listen more deeply than the immediate response of your intellect. [1]
"Every day you are reinforcing your beliefs, your habits and your inclinations.
- What are those beliefs, those habits and those inclinations?
- Are you aware of them?
- Do you see how you are reinforcing your weaknesses, your distractions, your vulnerability to persuasion by others?
- Do you see, on a daily basis, how you keep your mind preoccupied, rarely ever aware of where you are or what is going on around you, and unaware of the guidance and the power of Knowledge within yourself?" [1]
