Quotes from Dan Millman

Enlightenment is not an attainment; it is a realization. When you wake up, everything changes and nothing changes. If a blind man realizes that he can see, has the world changed?

perception change realization nothing the world enlightenment

Every positive change—every jump to a higher level of energy and awareness—involves a rite of passage. Each time, to ascend to a higher rung on the ladder of personal evolution, we must go through a period of discomfort, of initiation.

Everyone tells you what to do and what's good for you. They don't want you to find your own answers. They want you to believe theirs.

—Dan Millman in Way of the Peaceful Warrior

The time is now, the place is here. Stay in the present. You can do nothing to change the past, and the future will never come exactly as you plan or hope for.
