MEDITATION

Within these walls we move,

trapped in circles,

too afraid to step out

and live by our own pattern...

We are all souls

Souls love
That's what Souls do.
Egos don't
But Souls do.

Become a Soul,
Look around,
And you'll be amazed -
All the beings around you
Are Souls.
Be one, see one ♡

A journey
from nowhere to nowhere
Alone I travel
The sun within
lighting the path

Relinquish your attachment to the known, step into the unknown,

and you will step into the field of all possibilities.

If we want to learn to live without suffering, we first have to learn to live with it. When suffering is welcomed so completely that there is not the slightest resistance to it, what we were seeking, by trying to get rid of it, is revealed at its heart.

Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery it is. In the boredom and pain of it, no less than in the excitement and gladness: touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it, because in the last analysis all moments are key moments, and life itself is grace.

Don't surrender your loneliness 

So quickly. 

Let it cut more deep. 

Let it ferment and season you 

As few human 

Or even divine ingredients can.

Meditation is looking into your emptiness, welcoming it, enjoying it, being one with it, with no desire to fill it; there is no need, because it is already full. It looks empty because you don´t have the right way of seeing it. You see it through the mind; that is the wrong way. If you put the mind aside and look into your emptiness, it has tremendous beauty, it is divine, it is overflowing with joy. Nothing else is needed.

Like in a mirror form and reflection look at each other. 

You are not the reflection, but the reflection is yourself.

Happiness is man's nature.

You need not worry about happiness at all,

it is already there, it is in your heart

you just have to stop being unhappy.

The believer is not a seeker. The believer does not want to seek, that´s why he believes. The believer wants to avoid seeking, that´s why he believes. The believer wants to be delivered, saved, he needs a savior. He is always in search of a messiah — somebody who can eat for him, chew for him, digest for him. But if I eat, your hunger is not going to be satisfied. Nobody can save you except yourself.

The world is an illusion, but it is an illusion which we must take seriously, because it is real as far as it goes, and in those aspects of the reality which we are capable of apprehending. Our business is to wake up. We have to find ways in which to detect the whole of reality in the one illusory part which our self-centred consciousness permits us to see. We must not live thoughtlessly, taking our illusion for the complete reality, but at the same time we must not live too thoughtfully in the sense of trying to escape from the dream state. We must continually be on our watch for ways in which we may enlarge our consciousness. We must not attempt to live outside the world, which is given us, but we must somehow learn how to transform it and transfigure it. One must find a way of being in this world while not being of it. A way of living in time without being completely swallowed up in time.

This world
Is but
A fleeting dream
So why be alarmed
At its evanescence?

Once in his life a man ought to concentrate his mind upon
the remembered earth, I believe. He ought to give himself up
to a particular landscape in his experience, to look at it from
as many angles as he can, to wonder about it, to dwell upon it.

He ought to imagine that he touches it with his hands at
every season and listens to the sounds that are made upon
it. He ought to imagine the creatures there and all the faintest
motions of the wind. He ought to recollect the glare of noon and
all the colors of the dawn and dusk.

For we are held by more than the force of gravity to the earth.
It is the entity from which we are sprung, and that into which
we are dissolved in time. The blood of the whole human race
is invested in it. We are moored there, rooted as surely, as
deeply as are the ancient redwoods and bristlecones.

You have to accept your aloneness, which is no way you can avoid.
And there is no way to change its nature.
It is your authentic reality.
It is you.

How many times

Have I changed my

Firmly determined mind!

Mind, mind,

How unreliable!

Instead of hating the people you think are war-makers, hate the appetites and disorder in your own soul, which are the causes of war. If you love peace, then hate injustice, hate tyranny, hate greed - but hate these things in yourself, not in another.

How shall we seek real knowledge?

By renouncing knowledge.

How shall we seek salvation?

By renouncing our own salvation.

How shall we seek Existence?

By renouncing our existence.

Subhuti asked: "How can the practitioner who wishes to help all beings find enlightenment awaken to the complete and perfect wisdom?"

The Buddha said: "This most subtle awakening comes about through moment-to-moment attentiveness. By way of attentiveness, there is attunement to the ways in which things manifest, such as form and consciousness. The practitioner awakens to perfect wisdom by becoming blissfully free from obsessions with habits, names, sense experiences, personal feelings, and with dread of dying and all the despair that goes with it.
