"It's scary to open your eyes when you've spent your life not knowing they were closed. The first thing you see is that your entire life has been a fiction and now it's over." - Jed McKenna
"We can shape ourselves to each other, become emotionally entangled in each other, intermingle our thoughts and feelings, and fluids, but there can never be an authentic connection, only the profound desire to connect which is generated by fear of the black hole within. Which is ironically, paradoxically, counter-intuitively the door that leads out of the cave and into freedom." - Jed McKenna

'How you treat yourself - how you support yourself, and how you are with your experience each moment - is essential. Awakening is great, but that is essential.' - Jon Bernie

'The demand of the true spiritual path is to have the courage to be absolutely honest with your experience, to turn away from nothing, to run away from nothing, to hide from nothing. To tell the truth to yourself, to expose yourself to yourself, without a story of woundedness, without a story of 'poor me', without a story of being the victim - just the bare facts, the bare bones.' - Amoda Maa Jeevan

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.

"What the world needs most is more love, more generosity, more mercy, more openness. The root of human problems is not a lack of resources but comes from the misunderstanding, fear, and separateness that can be found in the hearts of people."-Jack Kornfield

"Spontaneous or guided spirituality is the path towards a deep understanding of the invisible world, of the self, of our true identity, through awareness, leading to a free and responsible action." Maria M.

If you don't have very strong emotions or very intense thoughts about something, you cannot get depressed. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
Life is rooted in reality, not in your thoughts and emotions. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev
“Rather than being your thoughts and emotions, be the awareness behind them.” ~ Eckhart Tolle
The most beautiful moments in your life – moments of bliss, moments of joy, moments of ecstasy, moments of utter peace – were moments when you were not thinking about anything. You were just living. ~ Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev

When even one virtue becomes our nature, the mind becomes clean and tranquil. Then there is no need to practice meditation; we will automatically be meditating always. ~ Swami Satchidananda
Wholesome virtuous behavior progressively leads to the foremost.~ Buddha AN 10.1
If you do right, irrespective of what the other does, it will slow down the (turbulent) mind. ~ Rajini Menon

The Third Patriarch of Zen-
Hsin Hsin Ming by Seng-T'san
Live neither in the entanglements of outer things,
nor in inner feelings of emptiness.
Be serene in the oneness of things and such
erroneous views will disappear by themselves.
