As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence actually liberates others.

Nothing liberates our greatness like the desire to help, the desire to serve.

Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us.

The spiritual path -- is simply the journey of living our lives. Everyone is on a spiritual path; most people just don't know it.
