adversity past overcoming
The past is not clinging to you; YOU are clinging to the past. Once you are not clinging, the past simply EVAPORATES!
heart school coward
If you are courageous, listen to the heart. If you are a coward, listen to the head.
past reality arrows
The past is no more and the future is not yet. The only right person is one who lives moment to moment, whose arrow is directed to the moment, who is always here and now; wherever he is, his whole consciousness, his whole being, is involved in the reality of here and in the reality of now.
real moving knowledge
Mind is repetitive, mind always moves in circles. Mind is a mechanism: you feed it with knowledge, it repeats the same knowledge, it goes on chewing the same knowledge again and again. No-mind is clarity, purity, innocence. No-mind is the real way to live, the real way to know, the real way to be.
moving journey dancing
Life is a continuity always and always. There is no final destination it is going towards. Just the pilgrimage, just the journey in itself is life, not reaching to some point, no goal - just dancing and being in pilgrimage, moving joyously, without bothering about any destination.
drunk mind quality
Just one quality of the Buddha has to be remembered. He consists only of one quality: witnessing. This small word witnessing contains the whole of spirituality. Witness that you are not the body. Witness that you are not the mind. Witness that you are only a witness. As the witnessing deepens, you start becoming drunk with the divine. That is what is called ecstasy.
children names personality
Zen says that if you drop knowledge - and within knowledge everything is included; your name, your identity, everything, because this has been given to you by others - if you drop all that has been given by others, you will have a totally different quality to your being: innocence. This will be a crucifixion of the persona, the personality, and there will be a resurrection of your innocence. You will become a child again, reborn.
taken granted purity
Your innermost core has always been pure. Purity is intrinsic to you, it cannot be taken away.
sex play ideas
Pray with your woman, sing with your woman, play with your woman, dance with your woman, with no idea of sex.
real keeping-it-real treasure
You cannot lose your real treasure.
flower rain heart
The dance of the flower in the wind, in the sun, in the rain, cannot be understood by the head; the heart has to be open for it.
mean people ego
Misery nourishes your ego - that's why you see so many miserable people in the world. The basic, central point is the ego.
needs pagan
The authentic pagan has no need of religion because, whatever religion can provide, he already has it.
struggle men missing
The man who is egoless is the man who has no ideals. Let this be the criterion, and you have stumbled upon a fundamental. The man of no ego is the man of no ideals. Then how can the ego be created? - the very energy is missing. The energy comes out of friction, conflict, struggle, will.
