I am, if anything, an entertainer, I love to feel that certain spark leap the gap between the speaker and the audience. But I don't have any message of world-changing nature. The world might change, but not because you're trying to change it.

Go to your interstellar space situation, where it does not matter whether you live or die, and realize that state. Having realized that state, you can come back to the other states and live them with more verve.

I think we are under an illusion with regard to the nature of ourselves. This arises from the superstition that there are really separate things and events. And I pointed out that that is actually a way of thinking rather than a state of affairs in the physical universe.

Our normal sensation of ourselves as isolated egos inside a bag of skin is a hallucination. It really is; it’s absolutely nutty.

We grow out of this world in exactly the same way that the apples grow on the apple tree.

Getting rid of one’s ego is the last resort of invincible egoism! It simply confirms and strengthens the reality of the feeling. But when this feeling of separateness is approached and accepted like any other sensation, it evaporates like the mirage that it is.

We do not want to survive merely, or to survive so as to be tormented forever in hell. We want to survive interestingly, even elegantly.

What you call the “external world” is as much you as your own body. Your skin doesn’t separate you from the world, it’s a bridge through which the external world flows into you and you flow into it.

The customer wants anticipation; he has no capacity for fulfillment.
