being

A positive needs a negative to complete its cycle, as the Moon needs an embodiment of itself, the Sun, to complete the cycle of its illusory essence, the Earth. Now if the earth is in dire straits, is bombing the moon to discover whether water is __erceived_ in the natural stance of humans an intelligent move?

Master Teachers who genuinely embody an enlightened state of being never stop __oing the work_. The ego is what assumes it knows enough, causing cessation of these daily practices, and therefore, Masters without attachment to ego are forever students of the Universe. The Masters attain an illuminated state of __eing_ as the outcome, yet it is the consistent __oing_ that promotes and maintains their enlightenment.

It is not so much being all that we dream of becoming as it is un-becoming all that is covering our being.

It is not so much being all that you dream of becoming as it is un-becoming all that is covering your being.

See the world for what it is.BEAUTIFUL!

The same sensitivity that opens artists to Being also makes them vulnerable to the dark powers of non-Being. It is no accident that many creative people--including Dante, Pascal, Goethe, Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, Beethoven, Rilke, Blake, and Van Gogh--struggled with depression, anxiety, and despair. They paid a heavy price to wrest their gifts from the clutches of non-Being. But this is what true artists do: they make their own frayed lives the cable for the surges of power generated in the creative force fields of Being and non-Being. (Beyond Religion, p. 124)

A person who is truly cool is a work of art. And remember, original works of art cost exponentially higher than imitations. Just take a look at the the coolest people in history. They will always be a part of history for being extremely original individuals, not imitations.

Every being, created by God and unspoiled by man, is perfect, strictly defined and autonomous, entirely complete and at the same time with a built-in ability to grow and develop. This is the essence of its dignity and holiness. It is not an embodiment of God__ immense Personality, but only one of the realisations of His perfection.

Soul is the invisible part of a living being that is immortal and breath is the evidence that the soul exists. The soul is what goes to Heaven when we no longer need our body here. We may be dogs, but we breathe, we bleed, and we love just like anybody else.

The endlessness of the extent of that whistle resulted, without a doubt, also in an enormous metaphysical knowledge of the art of whistling, which mingled, not just with the hearing of people, but extended, in an incisive manner, to the depths of their souls, the protected corner where each one hid their things- that frightening cave, which many call the centre of their being.

The one with __goism_ and __y-ness_ (mamata); the one with the awareness that __ am the doer_- are all called __iva_ [living beings] and he who has attained the realization that __ am not the doer, I am the Knower-Seer and I am the form of the eternal-bliss_, then he is the __oul_!

Entering into and opening to our inherent spacious soul daily allows a natural liberation of our manifold self-identifications to occur, and it is then that we can truly rest in the sacredness and come to know our ground of being. The great Celtic writer John O__onohue points to this when he says that __ehind the façade of your life, there is something beautiful and eternal happening.

You were born an original work of art. Stay original always. Originals cost more than imitations.

Do you know why our poetry today and especially our philosophy are such dead issues? Because they've cut themselves off from life. Now, Greece idealized on life's own level: an artist's life was already a poetic achievement; a philosopher's life was an enactment of his philosophy; and when they were a part of life that way, instead of ignoring each other, philosophy could nourish poetry, poetry express philosophy, and together achieve an admirable persuasiveness. Today beauty no longer acts; and action no longer bothers about being beautiful; and wisdom operates on the sidelines.

A happy heart is the beauty of being.

If you examine the Bible daily, you find the beauty of being.

The beauty of life is the bliss of being.

The beauty of being!
