You Wanna Do Something About It or Not?

"Until realization is lived in the world it’s only half born."

Byron Katie

The Real Path To Freedom

"Suffering is not holding you. You are holding suffering. When you become good at the art of letting sufferings go, then you'll come to realize how unnecessary it was for you to drag those burdens around with you. You'll see that no one else other than you was responsible. The truth is that existence wants your life to become a festival..."

Osho

Letting Go

What you resist...persists

Difficulties...

"Difficulties are like the ornament of a good practitioner. Dharma is not practiced perfectly amongst pleasant circumstances."

His Holiness Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche

The Greatest Gift...

"The greatest gift that you could ever give to another is your own happiness, for when you are in a state of joy, happiness, or appreciation, you are fully connected to the Stream of pure, positive Source Energy that is truly who you are. And when you are in that state of connection, anything or anyone that you are holding as your object of attention benefits from your attention."

Abraham via Esther (& Jerry) Hicks

When Less Is More...

"In pursuit of the world, one gains more and more. But in pursuit of the Way one gains less and less. Loss upon loss, until at last comes rest. When nothing is undertaken , nothing remains undone."

Lao Tzu

Do Unto Others

"See yourself in others, for then whom can you hurt? What harm can you do?"

Gautama Buddha

True Salvation

"True salvation is fulfillment, peace, life in all its fullness. It is to be who you are, to feel within you the good that has no opposite, the joy of being that depends on nothing outside of itself. It is not felt as a passing experience but as an abiding presence. In theistic language, it is to "know God" -- not as something outside of you but as your own innermost essence. True salvation is to know yourself as an inseperable part of the Timeless and Formless ONE LIFE from which all that exists derives its being."


Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now

Kindness

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted." 

Aesop

 

Be Here Now

"The witnessing soul is like the sky. The birds fly in the sky but they don't leave any footprints. That's what Buddha says, that the man who is awakened lives in such a way that he leaves no footprints. He is without wounds and without scars; he never looks back -- there is no point. He has lived that moment so totally that what is the need to look back again and again? He never looks ahead, he never looks back, he lives in the moment."

Osho

Giving...

"I have found that among its other benefits, giving liberates the soul of the giver."

Maya Angelou

A human being is...

“A human being is part of a whole, called by us the Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”

Albert Einstein

If you want to be happy...

“If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.”

Dalai Lama XIV
