“Being the president of a corporation has absolutely nothing to do with being awake, or being happy, or being a success in life. Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Having a lot of money has nothing to do with being a success in life. You’re a success in life when you wake up, when you don’t have to apologize to anyone; when you don’t have to explain anything to anyone. You don’t feel the need, to explain anything to anyone. You don’t give a damn what anybody thinks of you, or what anyone says about you. You have no
worries, you’re happy. That’s what I call being a success.”
Fr. Anthony DeMello, in “Awareness”
