Our society is dedicated almost entirely to the celebration of ego, with all its sad fantasies about success and power, and it celebrates those very forces of greed and ignorance that are destroying the planet.

I just got out of a residential treatment center where I was for 2 months. I need social support so if anyone can reach out to me to talk that would be great. I am still struggling with suicidal thoughts and am stuck living with my parents without many friends in the area.

Anything you avoid in life will come back, over and over again, until you’re willing to face it—to look deeply into its true nature.
Adyashanti (via thecalminside)
Love is a flame that burns everything other than itself. It is the destruction of all that is false and the fulfillment of all that is true.
Adyashanti (via thecalminside)
There’s only one thing that’s better than getting what you want: it’s to know that you can be happy whether you get it or not.
Adyashanti (via ecmshock)
The Guest House
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they are a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still, treat each guest honorably. He may be clearing you out for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice. meet them at the door laughing and invite them in.
Be grateful for whatever comes. because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.
-Rumi
Sometimes war isn’t fought on unfamiliar land against foreigners. Sometimes war is civil, fought inside your room, against yourself. I wonder how many war survivors smile at me everyday, just to return to the battlefield at night.

“It’s not who you are that holds you back, it’s who you think you’re not.” - Hanoch McCarty
The solar plexus chakra is located around the navel area and is associated with emotional feelings like power, ambition, creativity and joy. Blockage of this chakra is most likely anger, frustration or lack of direction.

When my therapist asks me what skills I could have used in a crisis:
It is ironic to use a militaristic metaphor, but your greatest “weapon” against the forces of tyranny comes through the harmonic energies of your heart, specifically your open heart. The interference patterns of fear, as manipulated by those in power, are designed to keep you at a low evolutionary threshold. Positive feelings, such things that you call love, appreciation, compassion, bring you very rapidly to a higher evolutionary threshold. The more individuals who choose the higher emotional capabilities of the human nature, the less effective will be the interference of fear on your collective.
The Hathors - Tom Kenyon (via iam-youis)
Does anyone know of a good post or reference for shifting out of anxiety, fear based emotions and especially panic?
I appreciate any help right now because I have been struggling. Thank you.
