The following is a list of abstract precepts and axioms that a modern day gangster carries with him throughout the duration of his conquest of the Universe. These are the Secrets of the Flytrap.
- The love you withhold is the pain you carry.
- They key to learning the truth about something is to have no preconceived notions about it.
- The cause of any idea must have at least as much reality as the content of the idea itself.
- Death is not the opposite of Life. Life has no opposite. The opposite of death is birth. Life is eternal.
- Time is an illusion. All moments are but one. Pleasure is only available in the Now. The past cannot be regarded without regret and the future cannot be regarded without misgiving.
- Space and silence are two aspects of the same thing, the same no-thing. They are an externalization of inner space and inner silence, which is the infinite creative womb of all existence.
- Everything that exists was created from an idea, a thought with no weight or size or location in space.
- The intellect is the connecting link between the physical man and the spiritual man, because the mind partakes of both material and immaterial qualities.
- You can only lose something you have; you cannot lose something you are.
- Ignorance of the Law of God affords you no protection from its Effects.
- Reality can be directly affected by thoughts, as the substance of reality and thought are one in the same.
- You are only as safe as your thoughts.
- I am not alone. I am surrounded by invisible forces that will assist me in the removal of unfavorable conditions.
- Courage is knowing what not to fear.
- The amount of reality that reveals itself to you is dependent on your capacity to receive it all.
- My body is a living house of a living God.
- Learn to accept and even welcome the endings in your life. By learning to die daily in this way, you open yourself to life.
- Worrying does not take away tomorrow’s problems; it takes away today’s peace.
- Unhappiness ultimately arises not from the circumstances of your life but from the conditioning of your mind.
- The most important characteristic for the survival of any species is not strength or intelligence but its adaptability to change.
- Expansion and positive change on the outer level is much more likely to come into your life if you can enjoy what you are doing already, instead of waiting for some change to come so that you can start enjoying life.
- You can’t be dependent on what happens for your happiness. What happens is the most unstable thing in the universe. It changes constantly.
- Judgement is confusing someone’s unconscious behavior with who they are or to project your own unconsciousness onto another person and mistake that for who they are.
- The wider the gap between perception and thought, the more depth there is to you as a human being, which is to say the more conscious you are.
- Underneath your outer form, you are connected to something so vast, so immeasurable and sacred, that it cannot be conceived.
- Chaos is a form of hyper-dimensional order that appears to be random when viewed from a sub-dimension.
“Do not look upon the present moment as if it were marred by something that has happened and shouldn’t have. Do not look upon the present moment as if it is deficient because of something that has not happened but should have, because if you do, you will miss the deeper perfection that is inherent in Life itself, a perfection that is always there, that lies beyond what is happening or not happening, beyond form.” -Eckhart Tolle
