without the grand shows and displays, the burning of incense and the lighting of forty million candles and all of the Gregorian chants or the rock and roll or whatever you choose, without any of it—in the silent temple of your heart, you make a simple choice: In this moment, I am going to discover what it means to teach only Love.

Oh! Focus on being aware that I am literally the creator of what I experience.
