"Study me as much as you like, you will never know me, for I differ a hundred ways from what you see me to be. Put yourself behind my eyes, and see me as I see myself, for I have chosen to dwell in a place you cannot see."
#Rumi
When you come back inside my chest no matter how far l've wandered off, I look around and see the way.
At the end of my life, with just one breath left, if you come then, I'll sit up and sing.
#Rumi
Stop the words now.
Open the window
in the center of your chest, and let the spirits fly in and out."
#Rumi
Only from the heart can you touch the sky.

"When you are truly serene, beyond effort,
life will come and kiss you.
She will reveal pearls of wisdom that cannot be found in a book.
A flower will bloom inside your heart that cannot be found
Nowhere on this planet, and a joy will follow that can't disappear.
Here in unending peace, an intuitive knowledge shines through:
I am the eternal ONE! "

We all know the sense of being.
Without practising
anything, all beings naturally refer to themselves as 'I',
I am or l exist. 'Am' means to exist, to be. But do we
know who is the 'l' that am? The 'l' that exists?
The sense of existence is naturally present within us
and is an unquestionable conviction and sense for all
living beings. It is there at the beginning of perception.
It functions during the waking state as the witness and
observer of all that appears within us, consciousness.
This feeling, 'I am', 'I exist', is the natural, untaught
way by which we recognise our very own existence.
Avoid the tendency of thinking that the
'I am' is some
special state that we have to search for.
It is just the very natural sense of being. Recognise and confirm this.

Walking Meditation When
Angry Mantra
Breathing in, I know that
anger is here.
Breathing out, I know that the anger is not me.
Breathing in, I know that anger is unpleasant.
Breathing out, I know this feeling will pass.
Breathing in, I am calm.
Breathing out, I am strong enough to take care of
this anger.

"Life is accepted in its totality. And in this total acceptance arises the awareness that will enable you to meditate. And this meditation will be far richer than any Vipassana of Gautam Buddha.
This meditation may create songs in you, may create dances in you, may give a new impetus to creativity in all dimensions of life.
Your silence should not be the silence of a graveyard, your silence should be the silence of a garden. Once in a while a bird starts singing, but it does not disturb the silence, it deepens it.
Once in a while the breeze comes with its song, passes through the pine trees, but it does not disturb the silence, it deepens it."
#Osho
Do your worldly duties but fix your mind on God. And know that house, family, and son do not belong to you; they are God's. You are only His servant.
I ask people to renounce mentally. I do not ask them to give up the world. If one lives in the world unattached and seeks God with sincerity, then one is able to attain Him.
#SriRamakrishna
"Awareness has a Heart.
..This Heart is not characterized by affective emotions; it's an intuitive capacity for perceiving the unity of existence out of which flows boundless and unconditional love. The Spiritual Heart is not the emotional heart, the heart that opens and closes. It has no specific location, although it is resonant in the body in the same region-the chest-as the emotional heart.
The Heart of awareness is like awareness in that it is always open, but its openness is heartfull. The Heart of awareness is a loving and intimately connected awareness
—it is intimacy without attachment or demand. It cannot close, and it cannot open, because it is always and already as open and vast as awareness itself. When we are unconscious of the Heart of awareness or the Spiritual Heart, we have no experience of it—to one who is unconscious of it, it might as well not be there at all."
#Adyashanti
see what you too could see, here and now, but for the wrong focus of your attention. You give no attention to your Self.
Your mind is all with things, people and ideas, never with your Self.
Bring your Self into focus, become aware of your own existence
#SriNisargadattaMaharaj
"It doesn't interest me what you have let go of, but what you are still holding onto."
#SriNisargadattaMaharaj
Worry only clouds your mind so that you cannot think clearly. You should learn to rely more on God.
This is a science, a divine law. There is always a way out of your trouble; and if you take the time to think clearly, to think how to get rid of the cause of your anxiety instead of just worrying about it, you become a master.
#ParamahansaYogananda
Seek quiet places where you can regularly get away by yourself and be free to think of God.
#ParamahansaYogananda
The greatest
love you can
experience is in communion with God in meditation. The love between the soul and Spirit is the perfect love, the love you are all seeking.
#ParamahansaYogananda
If you can understand that all this is the Lord's play, then nothing at all is bad.
#AnandamayiMaa
I cannot show you God or enable you to see God because God is not an object that can be seen.
God is the subject.
He is the seer. Don't concern yourself with objects that can be seen.
Find out who the seer is.
You alone are God.
