The words of Buddha quoted by HH Dilgo Khyentse RINPOCHE

 This existence of ours is as transient as autumn clouds.

To watch the birth and death of beings is like looking at the movements of a dance.

A lifetime is like a flash of lightning in the sky, rushing by, like a torrent down a steep mountain.




(136-137) The Yoga Sutras, Swami Satchidananda

 

“We won’t be able to alter the entire world, but we can alter ourselves and fly like birds. We can be calm even in the midst of disasters, and by doing so, we may help others to be calm as well. Serenity spreads like a virus. When we grin at someone, he or she will return the smile. A smile, on the other hand, is free. We should inflict joy on everyone. Why not die happy and laughing if we just have a minute to live? ”





SRI NISARGADATTA MAHARA


The consciousness in you and the consciousness in me, apparently two, really one, seek unity and that is love.

G.I. Gurdjieff


It is only by grounding our awareness in the living sensation of our bodies that the "I Am," our real presence, can awaken.


Ajahn Amaro


There is no way that we can understand it all. So the heart’s response to that mystery is faith - a trust in the fundamental orderliness of the universe.




Rune Lazuli


The only way to be truly loved, is to become love. Surrender to this freedom.




Hazrat Inayat Khan:


Our greatest enemy is ourself. All weakness, all ignorance keeps us from the truth of our being, from all the virtues hidden in us and all perfection hidden in our souls. The first self we realize is the false self. Unless the soul is born again it will not see the kingdom of heaven. The soul is born into the false self; it is blind. In the true self the soul opens its eyes. Unless the false self is fought with, the true self cannot be realized.





 

“When one’s [intellectual] nature is purified by the light of knowledge then alone he, by meditation, sees Him.''-Mundaka Upanishad 3.1.8




LAo TsuTao Te Ching

 

Empty yourself of everything.Let the mind become still.All things in the Universe rise and fall while the Self watches their return.They grow and flourish and then return to the Source.Returning to the Source is stillness,which is the Way of Nature..





HAFIZ

 

“Hidden beneath your feet is a luminous stage where you are meant to rehearse your eternal dance. ”
