Living and life

'You are life, but you give most of your time to living. And once you give most of your time to the living you give most of your time to worry, concern, problems, and difficulties – and that's what the human race has done. And of course, we are all members of this human race, but we're not all attached to living. Very few are detached from identification with living. When there is detachment from living, there is no more worry. Do you hear me? There is no more worry.'

'Living might be hard and is hard, but life is good.'

'Living is ups and downs. Living is feeling this way today and that way tomorrow… But you are forever life. You are life before living.'

'Life is not here. Living is here, and forms of life are here, but life is not here, not in the physical world.'

'You are life, and the more that you can thank life and love life, the more you will be life and living becomes much easier.'

'My living life is only as long as it is. Where are you now? 30, 40, 50 years, 60. Your living life might end any time. But it is only the living that is finished for now, not the life.'

'Life allows you to eat your breakfast. Life allows you to get up. Life allows you to scratch your body—life, that's what you are, but the living that you are is going to die.'
