We should understand that although delusions are deeply ingrained, they are not an intrinsic part of our mind and so they can definitely be removed. Delusions are just bad mental habits, and like all habits they can be broken.
- Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
âChange can only happen in this embodied physical reality. Thereâs a necessity to embodied existence where change can happen in ways that it cannot happen in the worlds behind the world.â

growth isnât always constant. relapses happen. it doesnât erase all your success.
Fucking. Thank. You.
âFor a short while the immortal ray of light that is our soul wears a perishable mortal garmentâŠbut for all eternity the soul is sustained by the Infinite Source of that light. The more we meditate, the more we feel that consciousness. And the less we meditate, the less able we are to transcend identification with the little self â so many pounds of flesh encasing a limited mind bound by sense perceptions to the troublesome environs of the world. We have to get to the Self beyond its physical and mental instrumentalities to realize we are not fragile mortal beings; there is an unbroken link between ourselves and the Beloved Mother of the Universe, the Divine Consciousness flowing through and permeating Infinity.â

âAll of us are apprenticed to the same teacher that the religious institutions originally worked with: reality. Reality-insight says⊠master the twenty-four hours. Do it well, without self-pity. It is as hard to get the children herded into the car pool and down the road to the bus as it is to chant sutras in the Buddha-hall on a cold morning. One move is not better than the other, each can be quite boring, and they each have the virtuous quality of repetition. Repetition and ritual and their good results come in many forms. Changing the filter, wiping noses, going to meetings, picking up around the house, washing dishes, checking the dipstick- donât let yourself think these are distracting you from your more serious pursuits. Such a round of chores is not a set of difficulties we hope to escape from so that we may do our âpracticeâ which will put us on a âpathâ - it is our path.â

be poetic. if you find the way the light falls through your window and onto your bedroom wall pretty, write about it. call it soft and golden as sunlit honey. if it makes you glad to be alive then itâs not silly. you look for the beauty of things, be proud of that. say the heavy rain is kissing you. write about the glow of the moon, the dancing of flowers. make your world magical. collect your metaphors and treasure them.
Never apologize for burning too brightly or collapsing into yourself every night. That is how galaxies are made.

âModern mass culture, aimed at the âconsumerâ, the civilisation of prosthetics, is crippling peopleâs souls, setting up barriers between man and the crucial questions of his existence, his consciousness of himself as a spiritual being.â

For now
Love is meditation. Love is not a remembrance, an image sustained by thought as pleasure, nor the romantic image that sensuality builds; it is something that lies beyond all the senses, for love is truth, and meditation is the discovery of the beauty of this truth.

I firmly believe that not only should we raise the minimum wage, but we should also create a maximum wage. There is no reason in which an orthopedic surgeon, which is the highest paying doctor will make an average of $464,500 a year, while the top 10 CEOs earn well over $33 BILLION a year. If we even so much as cap their earning potential at $1 billion, which is more money than anyone should really need to live a happy fulfilling lifestyle, then it would force them to put that money toward the company or be punished. This means giving their employees better health insurance, giving them more vacations, better wages, paying for their college or their childrenâs education, creating more jobs, and improving the functionality of their companies. Perhaps even force them to invest in the communities they are serving.Â
For those of you who are still skeptical⊠let me put it this way⊠the highest earning CEO âearnedâ $156,077,912 in 2014. Letâs boil this down. Thereâs about 52 weeks in a year. Letâs say that he works 40 hours a week. So a total of 2,080 hours a year. Thatâs $75,037 an hour. The median HOUSEHOLD income in the US is $50,502 per year. Heâs earning 1.5 times the amount per hour than the average household makes in a year. That disparity is absurd. To put that even further into perspective, the average NEUROLOGIST earns $219,000 a year according to a 2014 statistic. Every single one of the CEOs on the 100 highest paid CEOs earn at least 93 TIMES the amount that a NEUROLOGIST makes.Â
Something needs to change. People shouldnât be starving for the sake of someone elseâs greed.
Human Motions Sculptures by Peter Jansen
Peter Jansen (1956) studied Physics and Philosophy at the university. He worked as a guide, accompanying groups on survival and canoe trips, after which he dedicated his life entirely to the arts. Based on his ideas on transposition and movement the artist Peter Jansen uses shapes of the human body to create energetic spaces. In his earlier work, he focused on open spaces, created almost free of matter and weight. His recent sculptures capture sequences of human movements in space and time, in a single frame.
