“One is never afraid of the unknown; one is afraid of the known coming to an end.” ― Krishnamurti

[solace-philosophy]

Cannot man, with all his problems, act as a complete human being, and not as a political entity, separated from his psychological or ‘spiritual’ state? A tree is the root, the trunk, the branch, the leaf and the flower. Any action which is not comprehensive, total, must inevitably lead to sorrow. There is only total human action, not political action, religious action, or Indian action. Action which is separative, fragmentary, always leads to conflict both within and without.

— J. Krishnamurti

“There are times when the kindness of strangers only makes things worse because one realizes how badly one is in need of kindness and that the only source is a stranger.”

When your perspective becomes your prison, growth stops, empathy fades, and truth gets replaced by ego. Real awareness begins the moment you accept that your view is just one angle—not the whole picture.

Stay open. That’s where wisdom lives. 🖤

James Baldwin speaking

[whatevergreen]

“I am anti-Zionist. I don’t believe they [Jews] have the right, after 3,000 years, to reclaim the land with western bombs and guns on biblical injunction. When I was in Israel it was as though I was in the middle of The Fire Next Time.” James Baldwin, 1970

"But the state of Israel was not created for the salvation of the Jews; it was created for the salvation of the Western interests. This is what is becoming clear (I must say that it was always clear to me). The Palestinians have been paying for the British colonial policy of ‘divide and rule’ and for Europe’s guilty Christian conscience for more than thirty years." James Baldwin, 1979
