“Awareness requires living in the here and now, and not in the elsewhere, the past or the future.”

“Enlightenment can't be pursued or sought after. […] Truth is here now; no past, no future. People are unenlightened only because they believe in the truth of the past and therefore must look to the rewards of the future. To be enlightened, to return to the original state of life on earth, requires action now in the present with no reference to the past. What has to be done is to kill the old priest in you, starve out the traditionalist, the follower, the believer.”

“These are the days of the endless summer
These are the days, the time is now
There is no past, there's only future
There's only here, there's only now.”

“People never leave, we are always here in our past and future lives.”

“A great future doesn’t require a great past.”

“Spirituality tells the seeker not to live in the hoary past, not to live in the remote future, but to live in the immediacy of today, in the eternal Now.”

“Happiness: The art of living happily is to forget the past which no longer exists, not to be worried about the future which has not come yet, and to live the present movement mindfully and wisely. All we have is here and now.”

“Bringing people into the here-and-now. The real universe. That's the present moment. The past is no good to us. The future is full of anxiety. Only the present is real--the here-and-now. Seize the day.”

“We are what the past has made us. We are what the future will make us. Live now. Right now.”

“Live in the present, remember the past, and fear not the future, for it doesn't exist and never shall. There is only now.”
