The great perfection is non-conceptual awareness. - Dzogchen
True self-knowledge is nothing but awareness itself, naked and unadorned by any concepts. - Gilbert Schultz There is only this moment, the now. That is all there is. All else is imagined. - Adam Oakley The cause, the 'who' or the 'me', has no substance or independent nature of itself.

I think this is a good quote on mindfulness~

Mindfulness is a way of training your mind to concentrate on the present, in order to feel calm and improve your mental state. ( Collins English Dictionary)
“Life is available only in the present moment.” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh “No one has ever lived in the past or the future, only the now.” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh “The present moment is filled with joy and happiness. If you are attentive, you will see it.” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh “While you are walking, smile and be in the here and now, and you will transform that place into paradise.” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh |
Under the obsessive thoughts and plans, under the emotions, positive and negative, there is an ocean of peace. ~Gangaji To know yourself as the Being underneath the thinker, the stillness underneath the mental noise, the love and joy underneath the pain, is freedom, salvation, enlightenment. ~ Eckhart Tolle We are completely unaware of our true nature because we identify ourselves with our body, our emotions and our thoughts, thus losing sight of our unchanging centre, which is pure consciousness. ~ Dr. Jean Klein |
“Rather than being your thoughts and emotions, be the awareness behind them.” ~Eckhart Tolle “You are not your thoughts; you are aware of your thoughts. You are not your emotions; you feel emotions. You are not your body; you look at it in the mirror and experience this world through its eyes and ears. You are the conscious being who is aware that you are aware of all these inner and outer things.” ~ Michael A. Singer “There is nothing more important to true growth than realizing that you are not the voice of the mind - you are the one who hears it.” ~ Michael A. Singer |
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. ~ Elbert Hubbard
When one is alert, one can transform poison into medicine. ~ Swami Sukhabodhananda There is no greater force than awareness.

“The pollution of the planet is only an outward reflection of an inner psychic pollution: millions of unconscious individuals not taking responsibility for their inner space.” ~ Eckhart Tolle I don’t want to tell anyone how much water they should use or shouldn’t use. But whatever you do – make it as conscious as possible. If you become conscious, you will only use as much as you need to. This will make a world of difference. Right now, we are behaving as if we’re the last generation on the planet. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev When you live consciously, your response to situation that arise will be agile and appropriate. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev |
Equanimity is a perfect, unshakable balance of mind.- Nyanaponika Thera “Maintaining equanimity of mind in all situations should be our focus. It verily is the goal,” - Mata Amritanandamayi Equanimous mind gives rise to a heightened awareness. - Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Your mindfulness will only be as robust as the capacity of your mind to be calm and stable. Without calmness, the mirror of mindfulness will have an agitated and choppy surface and will not be able to reflect things with any accuracy. - Jon Kabat-Zinn |
