Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God.

Destruction of the ego
Q: How is the ego to be destroyed?
A: Hold the ego first and then ask how it is to be destroyed. Who asks the question? It is the ego. This question is a sure way to cherish the ego and not to kill it. If you seek the ego you will find that it does not exist. That is the way to destroy it.
The Real
The unreal never comes to be,
The real does never cease to be.
The certainty of both of these
Is known to those who see the truth.
Knowledge
Power rests on the kind of knowledge that one holds. What is the sense of knowing things that are useless? They will not prepare us for our unavoidable encounter with the unknown.
Seeing
Everyone can see, and yet we choose not to remember what we see.
Nothing to fear
The worst that could happen to us is that we have to die, and since that is already our unalterable fate, we are free; those who have lost everything no longer have anything to fear.
