  • Talking Silence - Episode Four - Spiritual Surrender... includes a report of an awakening sent to Bearji from one of his students. Stories of Padma own awakening and his spiritual search beginning at age 15. 

    Padma then ties it all together from quotes from many different traditions and mystics. 

    Some of the quotes:

    She who is centered in the Tao can go where she wishes, without danger. She perceives the universal harmony, even amid great pain, because she has found peace in her heart. ~Lao Tzu

    Peaceful is the one who is not concerned with having more or less. ~Rumi

    Only dwelling in the present can make us free. We have to look into our suffering, our craving. And when we see its face we will smile: you cannot make me your prisoner anymore. ~Thich Nhat Hanh

    The operation of consciousness has created the ‘apparition.’ called ‘me.’ ~ Mooji

    Where else are we now? Our very being is THAT! ~Sri Ramana Maharshi

    The one who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. Those who walk alone are likely to find themselves in places no one has ever been before.  ~Albert Einstein

    The most difficult times for many of us are the ones we give ourselves. ~Pema Chodron

    One does not walk into the forest and accuse the trees of being off-center, nor do they visit the shore and call the waves imperfect. So why do we look at ourselves this way?  ~Tao Te Ching - Lao Tzu

    We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think.  When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves. ~Buddha

    Surrender is the inner transition from resistance to acceptance, from no to yes. ~Eckhart Tolle 

    You are the road and the knower of roads. ~Rumi

    ~

    I'll add... Until you know nothing, you will never know Self. ~Ashtavakra Gita
