Awareness has the strength to dissolve and destroy any karma.
~ Sri Sri Ravi Shankar (OH! This is not the musician!)
I sure hope that's true, cuz I am aware and sorry for things!!!

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

Overthinking is the biggest cause of unhappiness. ~ Dadi Janki ( Prajapita Brahmakumaris)
Your thoughts create your feelings. To save yourself from useless and painful feelings, don’t think about useless or negative things. ~ Dadi Janki
Stress is our creation of wrong thoughts which has an effect on our efficiency, memory power, decision power and hence on our performance. ~ Sister Shivani ( Prajapita Brahmakumaris)
If we become aware of how we think, we can check our thoughts and change it; if we can change our thoughts we can change our destiny. ~ Sister Pari ( Prajapita Brahmakumaris)
Practice Self-awareness. Watch your thoughts, feelings and words. Check, if positive. Change, if damaging. ~ Sister Shivani

One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. ~ Carl Jung.
When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate... ~ Carl Jung
Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life, and you will call it fate. ~ Carl Jung

"Those who fly alone, have the strongest wings. Those who walk alone have the strongest direction. Those who follow on like sheep never get to see who they truly are. Only those who choose their own path and find themselves for who and what they are and what they are capable of are the ones who find their true self." - me

Now is the only reality. All else is either memory or imagination. ~ Osho
Memory is about what is over, imagination is about what is yet to happen. You can only fancy with these two. It is only reality that you can handle. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
Past and future obviously have no reality of their own. ~ Eckhart Tolle
What you are suffering is your memory and your imagination. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
If you are free from memory and imagination, you will always be meditative.~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
The false self lives mainly through memory and anticipation. Past and future are its main preoccupation. ~ Eckhart Tolle
You have projected onto yourself a world of your own imagination, based on memories, on desires and fears, and you have imprisoned yourself in it. Break the spell and be free. ~ Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that’s bull****. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they’re afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they’re wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.
Jim Morrison.

The pain-factory of life demands negative states from sleeping Humanity. ~ George Gurdjieff
Gurdjieff said: ’This life is a pain factory’. ’Existence’ is not a pain factory. ~ Alan J. Rudner
Joy is not your creation; it is part of the existing creation. If you stop creating nonsense, Joy is the only way. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
If you have become agony and not ecstasy, it is because a large part of your life energy is happening compulsively, not consciously. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev

You can be very much aware that when you are stressed, it always is a sign you have lost the present moment. So, you can choose to re-enter the present moment. ~ Eckhart Tolle
It is our compulsive reaction to the situations in which we are placed that causes stress. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
If you compulsively react, external situations determine how you are right now. If you consciously respond, your wellbeing is very much in your hands. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev

The only thing that stands between you and your well-being is a simple fact: you have allowed your thoughts and emotions to take instructions from the outside rather than within. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
The biggest issue with human beings is they do not know how to handle their thoughts and emotions. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
One is not stressful because of what he is doing; one is stressful because he is a bad manager of himself. He doesn’t know how to manage his own systems. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
If you make your mind, heart, body, and your very being sweet and wonderful, even if you go to hell, you will do well. You should have this freedom within you: 'Even if I go to hell, I will live well.' ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
The more you become conscious of your actions, the more you gain control over what happens within you and, to large extent, around you. -Sadhguru
