The dreamer's untamed eye sees beyond the illusions to the heart of what is real.
The best way to win against the intolerable is to tolerate them, for this they have seldom dealt with. Your indulgence may soften their malice and open their eyes to more honorable ways.
You have to make the decision to let go of the past if you want to move forward. Reliving your painful past will poison your heart and your tomorrow. If you look at today through the eyes of the past, you can never see what the present moment has to offer.
Through spiritual maturity you will see new ways to avoid unnecessary suffering; wiser ways to endure unavoidable hardships with grace, and opportunities to turn your pain into lessons of service and healing for others. Your hard journey has had a great purpose! Your pain was always a part of a plan to open your heart to love. Have faith. A miracle is happening in your life; the miracle of pain is transforming you to your highest self.
The feeling of being 'offended' is a warning indicator that is showing you where to look within yourself for unresolved issues.
If you are lonely when you are alone, you are in poor company.
The greatest joys are found not only in what we do and feel, but also in what we hope for.
Seek goodness and be goodness. Seek beauty and be beauty. Seek love and be love.
Through meditation and gentle cooperation, the body will heal itself with little or no effort.
I was advocating for world peace, but I was waging a violent war against my own body. I was speaking about poverty and starvation, but I was eating more than my fair share. I was a hypocrite.
My self-esteem had been crushed through years of childhood bullying and serious abuses, which would take me decades to overcome.
The realities of the world seldom measure up to the sublime designs of human imagination.
Do not let your ambitions become a sanctuary for your failures.
One column of truth cannot hold an institution of ideas from falling into ignorance. It is wiser that a person of prudence and purpose save his strength for battles that can be won.
