"Nothing ever goes wrong"

Nisargadatta Maharaj

Attain the 'Sushupti' (deep sleep) in the 'Jagrat' (waking) state and you become a Jnani.

~ Ramana Maharshi

The dreams are not equal, but the dreamer is one. I am the insect, I am the poet - in dream. But in reality I am neither. I am beyond all dreams. I am the light in which all dreams appear and disappear. I am both inside and outside the dream.

Nisargadatta, I Am That

Clear thinking and truth itself are some of the rarest commodities on the planet at the moment

Wealth is important and necessary, but I’ve met far too many rich people who are unhappy.

Usually because in the pursuit of wealth they neglected their health or relationships. Sometimes both.

You should strive to max all three of these variables as best you can.

If I was to give life advice to someone just starting out in life, I’d say prioritize your health in middle school, high school and college. Focus on eating right and getting in amazing shape. You’ll build the habits that will carry you through the rest of your life and you’ll look your best during the years when dating and sex matter a lot. Providing you more ability to find a high quality life partner, because long term high trust relationships are crucial for sustained happiness contentment etc…

Then in early adulthood go hard on the pursuit of wealth. Your twenties are the time to work your ass off and put yourself in position to own your time down the line. Better to give up 5-10 years now and own the next 30, rather than goof off in your twenties and end up stuck as a wage slave for 30 years. Save and invest aggressively, take risks, embrace sacrifice. Allow your peers to make fun of you, knowing you have a plan. Let compounding work for you.

Retire in your 30’s sometime around the time you’re starting your family and spend the rest of your life devoted to your kids, spouse and interests. Refocusing all efforts on health and happiness. Don’t take a single action unless it brings you more in either of those dimensions, while simultaneously tending to and growing the wealth you built up to this point.

People think for whatever reason that this sort of life path is not attainable, but it’s very much within the reach of the average college educated westerner. Most just have a defeatist mindset, which ultimately lead them in the wrong direction.

Never try to stop the thoughts. If you try to stop the thoughts, they will become bigger and greater, and they will win, because the mind appears to be very powerful. Yet in reality the mind does not exist. There is no mind. There is no such thing as a mind.

Robert Adams

Rare in this world is he on whom impressions are not left of things which he has experienced or who does not desire things which he has not yet experienced.

~ Ashtavakra Gita 17.4

Health, wealth, beauty, and genius are not created; they are only manifested by the ARRANGEMENT of your MIND.

— Neville Goddard

Either you live in the world of desire and fear, or you live in freedom.

Nisargadatta

"Each person comes into this world with a specific destiny - he has something to fulfill, some message has to be delivered, some work has to be completed. You are not here accidentally - you are here meaningfully. There is a purpose behind you." ― #Osho

As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clearheaded science, to the study of matter, I can tell you as a result of my research about the atoms this much: There is no matter as such! All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particles of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together. . . . We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent Mind. This Mind is the matrix of all matter.

- as mentioned in The Nature of Matter (translated), a 1944 speech by Max Planck in Florence, Italy.

Wisdom without love is like having lungs but no air to breathe.

Do not seek wisdom in order to acquire knowledge but in order to live and love more fully.
