The Only Freedom We've Got Is Not

Deep Down In Your Heart Know That All Is Well. Understand That The Universe Is Your Friend And Can Never Hurt You. It Is The Substratum Of All Existence Which Is Love! When You Develop A Loving Consciousness There Can Be No Problems. Love Takes Care Of Everything. Love Is The Same As Absolute Awareness, Pure Intelligence, Or The Power Of God. When You Have Enough Love Inside, There Are Truly No Problems. Problems Only Arise When You Believe You Are Separate And Lacking Love.

Still Photographs Often Differ From Life More By Their Silence Than By The Immobility Of Their Subjects. Landscape Pictures Tend To Converge With Life, However, On Summer Nights, When The Sounds Outside, After We Call In Children And Close Garage Doors, Are Small - The Whir Of Moths, The Snap Of A Stick.

At Our Best And Most Fortunate We Make Pictures Because Of What Stands Before Our Camera, To Honor What Is Greater And More Interesting Than We Are. We Never Accomplish This Perfectly, Though In Return We Are Given Something Perfect--a Sense Of Inclusion. Our Subject Thus Redefines Us, And Is Part Of The Biography By Which We Want To Be Known.

The Only Way You Will Ever Awaken Is Through Silence, Not Through Analyzation Of Facts. Not By Sorting Out Good And Bad, But Through Simple Silence, Letting Go. Letting Go Of All Thoughts, All The Hurts, All The Dogmas And Concepts. Letting Go Of These Things Daily.
