What is it in me that does not feel touched to the core?

To be true would mean to ask myself how much I can face this situation. Always

My usual consciousness consists entirely in judging—in accepting or refusing. This is not real consciousness. Indeed, in this state, without a quiet mind, nothing real can be revealed to me.

I see that all things have the same importance, and I accept failure as good for me. I begin again a thousand times. Everything depends on this seeing.

We cannot escape unless we see that it is a state of sleep and we awake to another life in ourselves, a higher reality in ourselves. For this we must first know a state that is of a different quality than what we experience all the time. This is possible only in work in the quiet, in conditions that are free from the demands of outer life.

I feel myself fall back into forgetfulness.

Our three centers—mind, body and feeling—work with different energies, and their disposition determines the influences that reach us.

There are different kinds of contact: one time I feel, another time I have a sensation, at another moment I see. When the intensity is the same in all three centers, there is consciousness. But

I am enclosed in a subjective world of habitual attitudes.
