Die to the past every moment. You don't need it. Only refer to it when it is absolutely relevant to the present. Feel the power of this moment and the fullness of Being. Feel your presence.
Letting go of the past means that you can enjoy the dream that is happening right now.
Because we cling to the past we become unavailable to the present.
The past is dead except for the life you give it
Let the past hold on to itself and let the present move forward into the future.
Live in the present, forget the past. Give up hopes of future.
To forgive is wisdom, to forget is genius.
You can't dwell on what might have been...and it's not fair to condemn him for something he hasn't done.
Don't dwell on what has passed away or what is yet to be.
You can't do anything about the past. And you don't know what the future is.
The present is burthened too much with the past.
Don't hoard the past. Don't cherish anything. Burn it. The artist is the phoenix who burns to emerge.
Carrying the past in to the present, we program the future to continue the past. Letting go the past in the present, we free the future to be something else.
The past cannot survive in your presence. It can only survive in your absence.
It's best to be ruthless with the past.
