Muscles are stretched in the gym, but they are actually built while one sleeps. Growth and learning usually happens when one isn't looking, and least expects it.
Image
It takes many years, sometimes many decades for one to begin to understand the subtler nuances of why ones teachers did what they did. Only the brightest sun can penetrate the inner layers of the diamond mountain.
Image
The spaces between bars hold the tiger. The spaces between words hold the feelings. The spaces between breaths hold the energy. The spaces between thoughts hold the wisdom.

Two Useful Disclaimers... First, just because it works for you, doesn't mean that it works for anybody else. Second, just because you think that it's working for you, doesn't mean that it actually even works for you!
Image
Deep pain arises when are separated from that which we were convinced was ours. Such deep pain can only be avoided by realizing that there is nothing that will remain with us forever. And when we take refuge in this truth, deep serenity arises.
Image
On careful examination we find that many people are not really as happy as they appear to be. It's a surface sheen. Wise ones know a happiness that is far beyond all appearances. Through and through, so light and clean.
Image
The more we run away from challenges, the more they bully and torment us. The more we run towards and look forward to challenges, the more they put on a sheepish grin and melt away. When life piles up the challenges thick and high, the real adventures say, "Is that all? Bring it on. We can take much more!" They slice through all obstacles like a hot knife through butter. When we welcome all of life, then all is well.

Any relationship is like a photo album of hundreds, maybe thousands of snapshots in our memory. Some are sad, some are glad, some make us mad. Irrespective of how any relationship is currently going or how it ended, it's up to us to choose which snapshot we choose to put on the cover of that album. Why not choose one which represents the brightest, happiest and most fulfilling times, instead of dark or gloomy ones?

Pride is a bus driver. He takes you for a ride. Of those who've been taken, everyone has cried. So when pride comes along and offers you a ride, quietly step aside or hold your breath and hide. Mark my words and be happy, you'll find I haven't lied.
Image
The way to deal with pain is to decide it is quite yummy and then stay with it, stay with it, and enter it deeply. Then it is suddenly transformed into something very deep and flowing. The sharp glaciers melt into curling rivers. The ability to play with and master our perceptions is the real gift of human birth.
Image
The funny thing is, the less people understand themselves, the more they insist that others should understand them! When there is deep self knowledge, all these demands fall away. One cherishes the mystery that is each person, each moment.
Image
Thoughts are like raindrops continuously falling on the windscreen. Awareness is the wiper which repeatedly sweeps them clean. And wisdom is the headlight. The slower the wiper and dimmer the headlight, the more distorted and dangerous our journey through life becomes. The faster the wiper and brighter the headlight, the drive is clear and safe throughout.
Image
Those who know you, don't judge you. Those who judge you, don't really know you. So let them judge, you needn't budge. Just remain true, to the silent voice within you.

to be a Yogi

Image
People believe it takes years of training to empty the mind of thoughts. That's not true. We can do so now: For the next 30 secs notice whatever thoughts are flowing without trying to steer or control them. Now gently ask yourself this question, "What will the next thought be?" Wait for the answer with complete attentiveness. The mind is instantly emptied of everything. Practice again if not clear the first time.
Image
Humility means traveling light. Living without the baggage of who you are, what you've done and what you expect from others. It's makes new learning possible and the journey of life delightful. Humility, is the coolest way to be.
Image
There is no 'other'. Reflections, reflections, all. Fools hug and kick at their shadows. The wise remain at easy. There is no other. This is all there is to know.
Image
Let people have their way on all the small issues; like a tumbling brook, be malleable and free. When it comes to your principles however, firm and resolute, like a diamond mountain be. Live by this timeless teaching, and your life will be filled with glee!
Image
At the relative level it appears that the sun rises and the sun sets. At the actual level it is always shining, infinite and bright. This same truth applies to birth and death. Our essential nature is neither created, nor destroyed.
Image
Praise and criticism arouse in most people a very primal, bio-chemical response. It takes maturity and awareness not to be too swayed by the words and actions of others and the inner conditions it creates in us.
Image
With proper vision you see that each one is always standing beneath an immense cascading waterfall of divine light. Yet many cling to their umbrellas, raincoats, and gumboots of guilt, shame and regret! Time to throw all this baggage away and get drenched, drenched and quenched!
Image
When we touch a burning hot vessel, even just a little bit, we instantly pull our hands back. It hurts! We can come out of anger when we have enough awareness to realize how each and every thought of anger hurts us. Until this awareness grows and settles within us, all other remedies remain superficial.
Image
With immense love, comes immense power. And therefore immense responsibility. For the moment the attention shifts from love to power, both rapidly diminish. This has been the failing of countless leaders in the past. Yet, no failing is permanent, one can rise again. Turn after turn, return to love.
Image
When one lives with presence it is possible to intend and work toward the absolute best outcome, and still not feel disappointed if it doesn't happen, deeply trusting the larger flow and intelligence and benevolence of life. It's a wonderful place to be.
Image
People express and receive love through five distinct love languages. Words of affirmation; Quality time; Acts of service; Gifts; & Physical touch. Many relationship issues arise because we assume the other person's love language is the same as our own. So we feel we are being very loving, yet the other person feels un...loved. Understand your own and your partner's love language today.
Image
People love you when you say and do things which match their expectations. They are disappointed when you say and do things which don't match their expectations. It's their story, their dream, their projection. You can choose to learn from these experiences. But don't take it personally. ...For these things have nothing to do with you.
Image
When you finally accept yourself, the sun breaks through the clouds again, all the guilt and regret just evaporates. A new day, a new possibility. You realize life was smiling at you all along.

Relationships

Image
Relationships are like holding water in the palm of our hand. Too loose and the love slips out, too tight and it spills out. Just right, and it quenches the thirst.

Words and their energy

Image
Don't try to capture the words and insights that inspire you. That will make you tense and restless. Breathe them. Sit with them. Taste them. Play with them. Let them wash over you. Let them go. They will be yours forever.

Exercise on loving Thyself

Image
The main issue to work on is LOVING THE SELF.This is the "magic wand" that dissolves problems.LOVING YOURSELF MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD. 1.Look into the mirror and say,"I love and approve of myself exactly as I am." 2.Say over and over to yourself,"I APPROVE OF MYSELF." 3.do this atleast 300 or 4oo times each. 4.Let "I approve of myself" become a walking mantra,something you just say over and over to yourself,almost non-stop.Saying "I approve of myself" is a guaranteed way to bring up everything buried in your consciousness that is in opposition. 5.When negative thoughts come up,gently say to these negative thoughts,"I let you go.I approve of myself." Thoughts are only words strung together.They have NO MEANING WHATSOEVER.Only we give meaning to them. 6.Say to yourself,"I choose to think thoughts that nourish and support me." Part of self-acceptance is releasing other people's opinions.Often what we think of as the thi

Mirror

Image
Man made mirrors only show us physical reflections. Only God has created the perfect mirror which reflects everything at every level of our being. It is what we call "the outer world".
Image
Every chakra is balanced when we shift from seeking happiness to spreading happiness. They spin with transcendent beauty. So lucid.
Image
One of the secrets of health is to have no secrets based on shame and fear. Tell someone who you trust and will accept you. Your while being will feel free and light.

Contentment

Image
Those who try to please everyone remain discontented. Those who care to please only themselves remain discontented. Those who are unconcerned about pleasing and displeasing anyone, accord with conditions, are wise, spontaneous and free. Only such know contentment.

with Ego

Image
Why are we always in such a hurry to defend ourselves? It's okay for the ego to be punctured every now and again. It gives perspective. It's very healthy.

of old masters

Image
It's interesting that the greatest masters and teachers did not write books. They embodied their message deeply. With every breath , every word, every gesture, they left behind imprints that became timeless.
Image
The ordinary life is dedicated to accumulation. The good life is dedicated to family. The extraordinary life is dedicated to qualities. The great life is dedicated to being awake.

Wellbeing

Image
Discover the secret well from the head to the heart. Then from the heart to the innermost being. And from there to infinity and oneness and nothingness. Light up all the passages. Move through all with confidence and ease. Make this your home. This is called "wellbeing".

I believe

Image
I believe in focusing on people's finest features. I believe in the highest quality perceptions. I believe in authentic speech and deep listening. I believe in giving others the benefit of the doubt. I believe in living the behaviors I expect from others. I believe it's wonderful even when my expectations are not met. I believe in wise, healthy, happy relationships.

something to do

Image
Everyday is bursting with opportunities to serve, to give, to encourage, to appreciate, to explore, to grow, to be creative, to do something better, to do something different, to follow your heart, to dream, to live your dreams, to be content, to know peace, to love, to learn, to laugh, and to let go. Yes!

The ordinary life is dedicated to accumulation. The good life is dedicated to family. The extraordinary life is dedicated to qualities. The great life is dedicated to being awake.

A small exercise on accepting that You Deserve Your Good.

Image
We all deserve everything we want.We just have to accept and believe that we deserve everything in life. Many of us constantly punish ourselves by saying "I don't deserve" or "I am unworthy."But the reality is opposite of what you believe.In this case,using affirmations is very helpful. 1.Look in the mirror and say,"I deserve to have everything that I want/desire in my life,and I accept it now.I am worthy of everything in this Universe."Say it 2 or 3 times. 2.How do you feel?Always pay attention to your feelings,to what is going on in your body.Does it feel true,or do you still feel unworthy? 3.If you have any negative feelings in your body,then go back to affirming "I release the pattern in my consciousness that is creating resistance to my good.""I deserve everything that I want in my life." 4.Repeat this until you get the acceptance feelings,even if you have to do it several days in a row.
Image
Have you ever considered, that in your imperfection lies your perfection? Try that belief on, for a change. If you should've been different, you would've been different. Just start from where you are. Keep promises to yourself. You can heal your life.

A small exercise on change.

Image
If you want to change something about yourself,then :- 1."I am willing to change."Repeat this often.You can touch your throat as you say this.The throat is the energy center in the body where change takes place.By touching your throat,you are acknowledging that you are in the process of changing.Be willing to allow the changes to happen when they come up inyour life. 2.Be aware that where you DO NOT WANT TO CHANGE is exactly the area where you need to change the most.The Universal Intelligence is always responding to your thoughts and words.Things will definitely begin to change as you make these statements. 3.Go look into a mirror and say to yourself,"I am willing to change."Notice how you feel.If you are hesitant or resistant or just don't want to change,ask yourself why.What old belief are you holding on to?Please don't scold yourself.Just notice what it is.Where did the belief come from?Do you know? 4.Again,go to the mirror,and look deep into your own ey
Image
What seems like the path of least resistance to the ego, often ends up being the path of most resistance for the inner being. The path of least resistance for the inner being is often resisted and resented by the ego. The way out of this dichotomy is by being very present to how each decision feels within you, and steadily choosing the path of longlasting benefit over immediate comfort or ease

an ideal YOU

Image
Human mind is an extraoridinary spectrum - it works with transposing its own patterns onto the perceived picture of other individuals. Once you step onto the Path why not make something reverse fr the starters. Use your own projections as a model - strive to make it happen, then after a time you won't have any claims, ...criticism - you will have what you wish in others - an ideal YOU...

infiltrate Your point of happiness. what makes You happy? is it just a certain construct that needs to be filled up, because "YOU" want to be happy - or are they just some processes that need the juice to run the parts of your psyche?

Listening

Image
Deep listening is not about solving the other person's problems. It's about being a clean and calm mirror, in which the person can re-discover themselves. It's the most exquisite form of non-doing in relationships.
Image
What we keep thinking and saying, we keep energizing. What we keep energizing, we keep manifesting. What we keep manifesting reinforces the old patterns of thought and speech. So break the pattern by noticing and saying new and improved things about yourself and others. It's actually fun once you start!
