way remember happened
I like to remember things my own way. How I remembered them, not necessarily the way they happened.
stress artist ideas
They say that negative things like stress, anxiety, tension, sorrow, and depression "squeeze the tube" so ideas don't flow through it. But if you get rid of that negativity, which goes away naturally when you transcend every day, these ideas are more freely flowing, and you get happy in the doing. You get fresh and inspiring ideas, and a bigger picture starts to emerge of the world and life. It's very good for the artist, businessman, fisherman, and any kind of person really.
fear people creative
Instead of instilling fear, if a company offered a way for everyone in the business to dive within-to start expanding energy and intelligence-people would work overtime for free. They would be far more creative. And the company would just leap forward. This is the way it can be. It's not the way it is, but it could be that way so easily.
believe fields surface
I truly believe there is a field of peace within and that it can be enlivened and brought to the surface to be enjoyed by all.
real cinema emotion
When you have something that brings a real emotion, that's the power of cinema.
people darkness seeing
I love seeing people come out of darkness.
special here-and-there needs
You don't need a special place to meditate. You can transcend anywhere in the world. The unified field is here, and there, and everywhere.
happiness morning book
If you have a golf-ball-sized consciousness, when you read a book, you'll have a golf-ball-sized understanding; when you look out a window, a golf-ball-sized awareness, when you wake up in the morning, a golf-ball-sized wakefulness; and as you go about your day, a golf-ball-sized inner happiness. But if you can expand that consciousness, make it grow, then when you read about that book, you'll have more understanding; when you look out, more awareness; when you wake up, more wakefulness; as you go about your day, more inner happiness.
heads-or-tails intuition way
Life is filled with abstractions, and the only way to make heads or tails of it is going through intuition.
beautiful powerful ideas
Ideas are like fish. If you want to catch little fish, you can stay in the shallow water. But if you want to catch the big fish, you’ve got to go deeper. Down deep, the fish are more powerful and more pure.They’re huge and abstract. And they’re very beautiful.
our-world goal creative
We want to generate the electricity of peace through music, and it’s a thrill to know that the super-creative, enthusiastic musicians of our world are with us to achieve this goal.
littles significance knows
Many things happen that we don't know the significance of until a little bit later.
absurdity-of-life absurdity bloody
Absurdity is what I like most in life.
movie inspiring heart
This whole world is wild at heart and weird on top.
