Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at the moment.

-Eckhart Tolle

[lazyyogi]

Love is not selective, just as the light of the sun is not selective. It does not make one person special. It is not exclusive. Exclusivity is not the love of God but the “love” of ego. However, the intensity with which true love is felt can vary. There may be one person who reflects your love back to you more clearly and more intensely than others, and if that person feels the same toward you, it can be said that you are in a love relationship with him or her. The bond that connects you with that person is the same bond that connects you with the person sitting next to you on a bus, or with a bird, a tree, a flower. Only the degree of intensity with which it is felt differs.

The quieter you become, the more you can hear.

“The mind is by nature restless. Begin liberating it from its restlessness; give it peace; make it free from distractions; train it to look inward; make this a habit. This is done by ignoring the external world and removing the obstacles to peace of mind.”

Ramana Maharshi

[thecalminside]

You are awareness. Awareness is another name for you. Since you are awareness there is no need to attain or cultivate it.

-Ramana Maharshi

“When you change houses you always lose something. Every move betrays you, it always cheats you somehow. I’m still looking for certain things.”

Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom.

Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power.

I’m not upset that you lied to me, I’m upset that from now on I can’t believe you.
