more important than life

MORE IMPORTANT THAN LIFE in the civilization where saving the face, pride and honor – the position you hold in this world, the roles you play, looking good and defending your position ---- becomes more important than life itself, to see the way things are and allowing what is, without interrupting the dance of life, will be the most difficult task.

Clarity

Clarity does not come from learning so much. It comes from going beyond the limitation of mind and body. It comes from emptying yourself from what you’ve already known.

Something very precious

do you know why you are so beautiful? Something very precious is hidden inside you. Lit the candle in your heart to see it - let your inner eyes wide open.

invisible

When I ask who you are, you tell me you are Peter. I say you are not. you tell me you are a market research analyst. I say you are not. these are all your mistaken identities. You may seem visible but you are the incarnation of what is invisible. you are the embodiment of a divine light. you are a love song and from inside you comes the supreme universal song that is not written anywhere but in your heart you are the presence that pervades the entire cosmos.

Eternity is in love with you

When you’re finally ready to look deep inside, your heart is infinitely in love with you. the entire universe is in love with you. Eternity is in love with you. Awareness is in love with you.

If letting go ---

This love has no walls a floor cannot hold it – and walls cannot stand before its majesty. Beloved, If letting go seems like a tiny moment of death, I am not afraid to die each day into your beauty – and something deep inside knows this death is the wedding to the light of the ocean, the eternal bliss - and I have now learned how gracefully to turn myself into a white cloud each moment so that you can lift me up towards the throne of your supreme elegance.

around the sun

you are already the energy that makes the earth orbit around the sun - you are the eyes through which the universe sees itself - whatever you add to yourself through learning interferes with the spontaneous flow of nature and hides your true essence.

echo of the real

why expect everyone to agree with what you do or say? there are infinite ways of entering the garden and dissolving. none of these are right or wrong. they're experiments, manners of opening and closing, finding and losing, falling and rising - don't get lost inside this movement - observe what is causing the movement - remember that whatever fluctuates is not real. it is the echo of the real.

genuine meeting

every genuine meeting happens only in the heart - when our coming together is innocent and free from any motive and demands, free from gender and race free from mentally created labels and expectations, inside our meeting the entire world comes together singing and dancing piece by piece until there is no piece left out

self-discovery

Where you begin the journey and what time of the day or night you begin the journey does not matter at all- for all the journey in our life big or small take us to a place of self-discovery.

fearless

have I said that already? our capacity to love and accept unconditionally, our readiness to dissolve into the energy of life -- depends on how fearless, open and spacious we feel inside each moment.

starving for love

instead of being someone who's starving for love, what if you are pure essence of love? what if you are love itself? what if you are a vast matrix of the universe swimming in the holy womb of universe, the highest instruction of life containing countless stars and solar systems and galaxies and expressed in the physical experience?

Whatever you focus on

Whatever you focus on intensifies itself and grows deeper.

what is not stable

It is forgetfulness that makes us marry the tide and waves – and everything that comes and goes, what is not stable then we suddenly have many bosses that push us around all our lives – those who’re awake already know that they are the ocean and the sky and the original song of existence.

being available

and being available to life, without trying to interpret it your way or without mental or psychological commentary – that is truly the greatest courage.

after the last moon

garden of Eden

the ego loves your misery and so it cannot bear when you experience true joy. It feels small and intimidated as if falling from grace and driven from the garden of Eden.

a person sitting next to you

the angry person

the good news

the good news is no one is particularly selected. consciousness has no favorite person. It hangs out with all of us whether we’re aware or not. don’t give up my friend! awakening is possible for everyone.

new dimension of awareness

Children are new dimension of awareness – they ‘re empty and clean space where innocence dances. You cannot teach them how to be present and alive because they already pulsate with the fire of presence. be mindful of what you teach your children. it can be dust that can dim their natural light and eventually contributes towards forgetting their true nature.

infinite intelligence

Don’t be terrified if everyone around you knows so much but you know almost close to nothing. True wisdom lies in the very core of unknowing, the infinite intelligence that does not use words. It is very confident, stable and truly reliable.

your buds wide open

You’ve waited so long for the sun to rise, for a day to break – you’ve waited for the storm to settle, for the moon to come out – you’ve waited for a tree to bloom and for the rain to sing– you've waited for yourself to arrive ---- you’ve tried everything in your power to spill yourself into all things possible. now that you are no longer a stranger to mystery – now that your heart is closer to you than your lips the time has come for you to mingle with the force of life, to become wings and moon-nectar – to become a song we cannot rehearse - to become the joy and light of the sun – to be the ocean that holds the root of our soul – and to live like a flower, with your buds wide open in the sun-

love

What is most powerful and yet sounds crazy about love is that we become everyone and everything that we are in love with. can you help it?

your heart-ocean

I swear to you with all of my heart - the only way you become free is when you move deeper into your heart-ocean and discover your inner truth, unassisted and unsupported - Truth is simple and direct and available to everyone. it does not need endorsement from a guru or a support group.

sometimes

It is like this sometimes ---- a healer can send you a healing energy - a priest can give you blessings - and a doctor can prescribe a drug – a friend can be fully present for you - but you’re the only one who can heal yourself. you are the medicine for your heart-ache.

rooted

ROOTED Who said life is a goal? who said it is destination? it is rather a continuous dance and discovery and this place where your feet rest has known so much tenderness and love – it is a windy day today in Minneapolis. do we know where the wind is coming from and where it is going? wherever you go, my dear companion, and whatever you do, be rooted in your innocence

beyond all conditioning

Only by entering our heart center, we can experience our true nature – where we can find the strength to move beyond all conditioning and expand – we can take out the garbage on a regular basis – we can have the capacity to turn ice into water and form into formless, we’ve the capacity to release whatever we’re holding onto and this letting go brings us to a place of complete stability and pure spaciousness, something you cannot grasp with thought, it has no shape or size, no tribe, no gender or color -

Spend all of the bonfire

Spend all of the bonfire of your joy now. don’t take it with you anywhere for inside every moment a new energy of delight, a new taste of laughter, a new flavor of drunkenness is birthed

what has not been broken

You want to be happy – you want to be free – but somewhere inside the ego comes along and says - it is not time to be happy now. You have to wait a little bit – There are more important things to accomplish, there are more things to fix before you become happy ----- at this time, you don’t really deserve happiness - - then you believe it and you work hard all of your lifetime to repair what has not been broken -

another name for splendor

Once you see life in its fullness, once you experience this moment exactly as it unfolds, without the interference of thought, you realize that life is actually another name for splendor.

dance floor

Only receptivity and courage can open you up to the deep mystery of your own fundamental goodness. then every particle in your body begins to dance with simplicity and infinite majesty and wherever your feet rest becomes a dance floor.

Whatever storm

Whatever storm is arising either inside you are outside of you, cannot reduce you to dust– no storm, whether inner or outer can be more powerful than your true nature – and it will eventually pass - no matter how many layers of grey clouds loiter on the face of the sky, the sky has never doubted its essence nor worried for its safety.

land of make believe

This world Is a land of make believe - and this drunkenness this joy of being - It does not matter where It started - In the beginning or in the middle of no where or where the path ends and life begins – None of these matter - we are all here to jump into the same ocean. to throw ourselves into the arms of great mystery.

melody in your heart

I do not know

The rarest song that can come out of your pulsating being is when you utter the words “I do not know”. It is the same as saying “I love you” to someone you’ve not met before. It reveals the innocence and the spaciousness within you that can hold infinity.
