spiritual school warrior
If there is a central theme to what I called "a peaceful warrior's approach to living," and to The Four Purposes of Life, it is that there may be innumerable techniques or methods one can learn (from the Eastern spiritual cultures and from the Western psychological tradition), but that above and beyond all these technologies waits the school of everyday life.
patience warrior water
Peaceful warriors have the patience to wait until the mud settles and the water clears. They remain unmoving until the right time, so the right action arises by itself. They do not seek fulfillment, but wait with open arms to welcome all things.
body peaceful-warrior consciousness
Consciousness is not in the body; the body is in consciousness. And you are that consciousness.
peaceful-warrior awake whole-life
you can live a whole life time never being awake.
warrior stronger demand
Remember that life develops what it demands - the toughest path creates the strongest warrior. Pray not for a lighter load, but for stronger shoulders.
peaceful-warrior moments
Where are you? Here What time is it? Now What are you? This moment.
responsibility warrior men
A warrior takes responsibility for his acts, for the most trivial of acts. An average man acts out his thoughts, and never takes responsibility for what he does.When we feel stuck, going nowhere -- even starting to slipbackward -- we may actually be backing up to get a runningstart.
warrior fool
The warrior acts, the fool reacts.
book warrior offering
My parents were only one part of my lineage. I also met a number of mentors, one of whom I nicknamed "Socrates" after the ancient Greek, and wrote about in my first book, Way of the Peaceful Warrior. That book emerged in 1980, as a result of travels around the world and decades of preparation, eventually leading to 15 other books written over the years, culminating in my newest offering, The Four Purposes of Life.
warrior may humans
When you become fully responisble for your life, you can become fully human; once you become human, you may discover what it mens to be a warrior.
peaceful-warrior reason way-of-the-warrior
Be happy now, without reason - or you never will be at all.
courage sleep warrior
Don't wait until you die to learn the warrior's way. Do it now, each night, just before you drift off to sleep. As you review your day, consider these two questions of courage and love. Learn from each day, so that each day you can show a little more courage and a little more love. Then, as incidents occur, you may rise to the occasion and look back at the end of your life and feel good about the way you lived.
attitude warrior attachment
When you begin your transcendental training, focusing your best efforts, without attachment to outcomes, you will understand the peaceful warrior's way.
life commitment warrior
As a peaceful warrior, I would choose when, where and how I would behave. With that commitment, I began to live the life of a warrior.
