"If your mind races, return to the place,"
return to where  you were before thought.
Return to the site of Oneness.¹

— Sefer Yetzirah

What’s your primary experience
before thoughts, feelings, sensations,
perceptions have begun?
It’s just the experience of being;
just a simple, ordinary, intimate,
colorless, silent experience of being.

Our innermost experience is just being —
the awareness of being.²

— Rupert Spira

We can experience
the awareness of being —
the Now —
at any moment.

It is always Now.³

— Expressions of Joy

Heaven is a direct
Now-experience
and can only be found
in the conscious Now.⁴

— Richard Booker

The center of spiritual gravity
is always within,
and only within.⁵

— Richard Booker
