More Quotes by Ken Keyes Jr.
The love and peace of higher consciousness flow from just being - and enjoying it all. Anything you do will not be enough unless you feel fulfilled in just being. Usually we are not happy when we find doing whatever it is that we think we have to do. Doing creates expectations that your world and the people around you may or may not fit. The things we do disappear in time. We must learn to appreciate just being alive in the nowness of whatever situation we are in.
The outside conditions of your life do not make you feel either secure or insecure. One person may feel secure with practically no money at all, while another may feel insecure with a million dollars in the bank. Your feelings of security or insecurity are due to your emotional programming.
Conscious people always have a choice of whether to try to modify the actions of people around them or to change their response to the incoming stimuli.
To be upset over what you don't have is to waste what you do have.
Whenever you feel upset, take full responsibility for the emotions that you are experiencing. Get to work as quickly as possible identifying the programming, or the addiction, that is leading you to reject what other people are saying or doing.
A loving person lives in a loving world. A hostile person lives in a hostile world.
Everyone and everything around you is your teacher.
Giving up an addiction means re-programming that part of your brain that makes you restless and unhappy if a desire is not realized.
The past is dead; The future is imaginary; Happiness can only be in the Eternal Now Moment.
I have everything I need to enjoy my here and now - unless I am letting my consciousness be dominated by demands and expectations based on the dead past or the imagined future.
