Feelings are just visitors, let them come and go.
When you live guided by intuition rather than thought, your life dances like writing on water, fresh and untraceable.
The greatest step towards a life of happiness and simplicity is to let go. Trust in the power that is already taking care of you spontaneously without effort.
Wanting something to make you happy is a sure way to be miserable.
Just as you wash your hands before eating, clear your mind before engaging with the world.
To change the world is not your mission. To change yourself is not your duty. To awaken to your true nature is your opportunity.
In the spiritual journey, you cannot be a wine taster, you have to become a drunk.
Your urge to control life controls you.
We are the space in which thoughts appear, play, and dissolve like clouds drifting in the infinite sky.
Life cannot be against you, for you are Life itself. Life can only seem to go against the ego's projections, which are rarely the truth.
Don't expect anything from anybody, this is also a great freedom. Don't expect things to be different or people to be in service to you or your own life or projections. Feel gradually that natural feeling of detachment. Dont watch constantly with the eyes of relationship and past and so on. Stay faithful to your own discovery, leave the rest and life will take care of it.
If you give yourself one complete minute of focused presence, to simply stop; even to listen to your heart beating, it will take you out of your head and introduce you to the moment which is complete in itself. It is not on the way to another moment. It is not a bridge to another opportunity. It is the timeless perfection So stopand sink into this timeless moment.
Go beyond everything. Don't collect anything. A king does not need to go shopping in his own kingdom. Nor does he beg. Remember, you are the inner reality-pure awareness only. All that arises are appearances in consciousness. Don't bother with all that. Rest only as the awareness. This is the secret.
God can never be close. God can never be close because it would mean that there is some place where God is not. God is infinite. We cannot exist outside of the infinite. Therefore, God is our Reality.
There is a presence, a silence, a stillness which is here by itself. There is no doer of it, no creator of this stillness. It is simply here in you, with you. It is the fragrance of your own self. There is nothing to do about this, it is naturally present. This fragrance of peace, this spaciousness, it is the fragrance of your own being.
If you sit down and just keep quiet...you are in the state of Self-Awareness. ..keeping quiet means being without any techniques, effort or intention to meditate...not following the thought stream...not pursuing the senses, no imagination...s uch an intense Self-focusing comes without any effort...then, by itself...out of nowhere, wisdom and insights come.
Let it be whatever it will be. Give up trying to manipulate. This is Freedom.
There is a mystery within all beings bursting to reveal itself, in the ones who become quiet enough to discover it. In this discovery a benevolent force shines spontaneously from your presence towards all beings, and this light cannot help but illuminate the world.
You already are, the peace you are looking for. Be still and know that
When you don't want to be interesting, you are free.
Day by day become more and more intimate with the inner stillness, joy and love which is the fragrance your own pure heart. Keep quiet.
Don't try and save yourself. The self that is trying to be saved is not you.
Ignoring the mind is a beautiful sadhana. This is what many of the sages did. They ignored the mind out of existence. It loses its influence and its potency when it is ignored.
You are the Master, the mind is your servant. That is the correct relationship.
