Food for the ego is poison for the soul.

When there is no tension between the inner beingness and that which is being expressed, there is grace.

Walk a bit further. There is a different land not far away. The people in it have the magic to break the icy fingers of the great death.I heard that you don__ even have to pay.However, you have to find their door.It is only found by those who pay the other price.

The question is: do you want suffering or do you want peace? It's that simple.

Life is not a competition. No one has to lose for someone else to win. A true blessing blesses everyone.

There is a depth to life which only comes from our connection to other people. However, we have to find it without becoming a prisoner.

Forgiving is easier when we understand that forgiving someone else means that we are freeing ourselves of an unnecessary burden.

Fear cannot capture us, criticism cannot harm us, and pride cannot make us fall.

It is warmer here. Can you see the light? Trust it. It is safe. It has lived a long time. It has seen much more than you. You fight a demon that you once knew but the demon is already slain. And from the corner of your eye you will see the scattered, sacred fire reform again. Settle, settle. Peace, peace

The desire for connection with the Divine and our formless inner self is at the foundation of all desire for human connection.

Courage is the starting point of everything good. To love another is to automatically feed the fire of courage. We cannot be humiliated when we are fighting for someone or something we love. We will not give up when we are fighting for loved ones. As we evolve, our loved ones extend out from our family to include all of humanity. Courage and confidence will grow over the years with practice and self-awareness. We are never alone. God will help us. Such is the courage which gains respect from others. More importantly, we gain respect for ourselves.

Do we find ourself or does our self get demolished?

To be creative, first we must be generous. Then we must have a quiet, indomitable belief in our own worth.

Wise individuals frequently say very little, but what they do say hits the mark. Such remarks often remain in the mind of the recipient for a long time, possibly a lifetime.

Sometimes, to protect a secret we will say it so openly that most will not suspect the truth of what we are saying.

One has to beckon the spiritual warrior inside oneself whenever it is deemed necessary for the task at hand. Courage is the fuel. Healing is the direction. Forgiveness is the balm. Love is the atmosphere Divine.

We love with all our heart but we also keep our heart light and pliable. It has space. It breathes. It waits on life to give instructions. It sings with sweetness when the winds are soft and warm. It stands with calm patience when the storm is brewing. It lets go when endings have left their irrefutable mark. It moves. It heals. It hopes.

Every wonderful quality "in" someone is waiting to be recognized in all of life's great symphony.
