Its been so long since we were totally open and beyond the fear of the possibility of hurt, that we keep our hearts and minds concealed from the world. Self revelation is not some kind of performance, or the seeking of attention - it is the outcome of the healing of our broken hearts - it is the result of many periods of introspection and meditation where we have seen who and what we really are, as opposed to who and what others have tried to make us. We are able to open and truly reveal ourselves when we see that all our hurts, all our pain, was self-inflicted. Thats not easy to see, not easy to accept, but when we do, we realise no one can hurt us unless we let them. They can harm our body, but not our minds, unless we give them permission. This inner realisation allows us to be comfortable, unthreatened, safe in moments of self-revelation. ” “ Head covering has become a style, a fashion.

It is your freedom from the fear of being lonely. ” “ The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page. ” “ Skillful pilots gain their reputation from storms and tempest. ” “ Life experiences are like sentences - we are always looking for the full stop, the conclusion. It's OK to end a train of thought, but not thought itself. Thoughts are the beginning of our creation and are here to be creative. Thoughts are like the magic carpet on which the soul rides across eternity - in reality, there are no endings, no conclusions. Rest for the spirit (which is what we are) is when we allow only the current of the purest thoughts to flow through our mind - thoughts which carry good wishes and blessings for ourselves and others. This is not so much going with the flow, as being in the flow, and being refreshed by the flow. It is how we refresh ourselves. For when we have powerful, positive thoughts for and about others, who experiences them first? ” “ Do, or do not.

You must go through the experiences. ” “ The world is magic when your eyes are open to the love and beauty inherent in every moment. All becomes clear.

Real values can have meaning to man only when he steps on to the spiritual path, a path where negative emotions have no use. The spiritual path is based on the true human values: truth, right conduct, peace, love and non-violence. When man plots a course through life based on these values, which provide a solid foundation, then all the negative emotions fall away. Even if he should stumble on the path, he can easily see the reason for the fall and quickly steady himself and continue the spiritual journey. ” “ Anyone who has ever looked into the glazed eyes of a soldier dying on the battlefield will think hard before starting a war. ” “ Common sense is the measure of the possible; it is composed of experience and prevision; it is calculation applied to life. ” “ An expert is a man who has stopped thinking - he knows! ” “ Physicists like to think that all you have to do is say, these are the conditions, now what happens next? ” “ You can't build a reputation on what you are going to do. ” “ An aphorism is true where it has fixed the impression of a genuine experience ” “ Practice makes you perfect so be careful what you practice! ” “ I am a passionate traveler, and from the time I was a child, travel formed me as much as my formal education. ” “ Benefits should be conferred gradually; and in that way they will taste better. ” “ Use your feelings, Obi-Wan, and find him you will. ” “ Acting is a question of absorbing other people's personalities and adding some of your own experience. ” “ Practice does not make perfect.

As you walk, allow your thoughts to visit you, but not stay. Let them come to pass, and you will be surprised how quickly they become positive, and filled with creative ideas. And paradoxically, if you stay internally aware, you may notice that the quicker you walk, the more your thinking slows down and deepens. Walking briskly and positive thinking - that's the simplest way to take care of body and mind.

One is to listen to your gut, no matter how good something sounds on paper. The second is that you're generally better off sticking with what you know. And the third is that sometimes your best investments are the ones you don't make. ” “ With every experience, you alone are painting your own canvas, thought by thought, choice by choice. ” “ A tear dries quickly when it is shed for troubles of others. ” “ Adventure is not outside man; it is within. ” “ The leader of genius must have the ability to make different opponents appear as if they belonged to one category. ” |
