I sit with my grief. I mother it. I hold its small, hot hand. I don’t say, shhh. I don’t say, it's okay. I wait until it is done having feelings. Then we stand and we go wash the dishes.

-- Callista Buchen, from Taking Care

Main raha umr bhar judaa khud se,

Yaad main khud ko umr bhar aaya.

Lessons I’ve learned this year:

Boundaries are important.

Leave that which is doubtful.

If it disturbs the peace of your soul, it’s not worth it.

Protect your heart, protect your heart, protect your heart.

May Allah allow us to purify our intentions, and carry out our rights and responsibilities towards Him and others in the best of manner during these blessed 10 days, ameen!

“It is always the false that makes you suffer, the false desires and fears, the false values and ideas, the false relationships between people. Abandon the false and you are free of pain; truth makes happy, truth liberates.”

— Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

“Every deep thinker is more afraid of being understood than of being misunderstood.”

“Suffering is due entirely to clinging or resisting. It is a sign of our unwillingness to move on, to flow with life.”

— Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

“We think we have to be a certain way because we have been taught to be a certain way. Actually the only truth is to keep quiet and see what happens from there. When I feel ill-tempered, when I feel sad, when I feel distant, it’s just something that is happening. When I don’t compare it to the past and project it into the future, then it’s just something that is happening now. It’s a way of dying now.”

— Papaji

It is astounding how so many intelligent people are ensnared in some form of self-limitation or depression. The chains you live within are self imposed. Power lives on the other side of pain. Neither pleasure nor pain can be given any influence over your liberation. Find everything that makes you feel safe, and destroy it. You must decide that you are stronger than your current conception of yourself, or accept intellectual slavery. Go where you are least at home, and conquer all that stands before you. Today’s suffering shall bring tomorrow’s sovereignty.
