Adyashanti

 “Awakened awareness reveals awareness, not as something to possess, but rather the vast, conscious spaciousness that we are...This experience brings a great fearlessness, freedom, lightness, and clarity of mind.”



Arundhati Roy

 To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try to understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget.

 We project our inward life outwards. Thus the world around oneself is only beautiful when you’re at peace with the world within you.”



Khalil Gibran

 


Tupac Shakur

 You can spend minutes, hours, days, weeks, or even months over-analyzing a situation; trying to put the pieces together, justifying what could've, would've happened… or you can just leave the pieces on the floor and move on.

🕉 Discourse and Dialogue of Anandamayi Ma ❤


Question: People are asked to worship God, to sing His praise in hymns, to perform puja, to repeat constantly His name, and they do all this without knowing what God is. Will you please explain?

Answer: God is all-knowledge, and one cannot know His true nature till one attains Self-Realisation. Then one will find Him to be none other than oneself, the only Atman, the only Self there is, and that He is with form as the world and without form as Chit, Pure Consciousness. In the meantime, prayers, worship and meditation have to be performed.




Swami Vivekananda


''The more we grow in love and virtue and holiness, the more we see love and virtue and holiness outside. All condemnation of others really condemns ourselves. Adjust the microcosm (which is in your power to do) and the macrocosm will adjust itself for you. It is like the hydrostatic paradox, one drop of water can balance the universe. We cannot see outside what we are not inside.''





Time is an illusion



Wu Hsin


“The mirage of an egg cannot be shattered by any mallet. Likewise, the mirage of a separate self cannot be shattered by any individual. The individual is, itself, the mirage.”
