"Man is where his attention is. If you pay attention to your wound: you are there. If to your sadness: you are there. If you have experienced a big disappointment, loss or infidelity, your attention dwells on the disappointment and feeds your feelings with energy. He repeats the original experience again and again, coloring it and weaving it further with his imagination. You feel sorry for yourself, you cry, and your whole soul is filled with grey-purple anger and gloom and bitterness.

""Az ember ott van, ahol a figyelme. Ha a sebedre figyelsz: ott vagy. Ha a szomorúságodra: ott vagy. Ha valami nagy csalódás ért, veszteség vagy hűtlenség, figyelmed a csalódásnál időzik, és energiával táplálja az érzéseidet. Újra és újra ismétli magában, kiszínezve, és képzelettel tovább szőve az eredeti élményt. Sajnálod magad, siratod magad, s betölti egész lelkedet a szürke-lila düh és komorság és keserűség."
