Life is the dancer and you are the dance.

Kehidupan

If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place. Primary reality is within; secondary reality without.

Pendidikan

Prejudice of any kind implies that you are identified with the thinking mind. It means you don’t see the other human being anymore, but only your own concept of that human being. To reduce the aliveness of another human being to a concept is already a form of violence.

Kreativitas

All true artists, whether they know it or not, create from a place of no-mind, from inner stillness.

Kebahagiaan

Pleasure is always derived from something outside you, whereas joy arises from within.

Only the truth of who you are, if realized, will set you free.

Keberanian

Fear seems to have many causes. Fear of loss, fear of failure, fear of being hurt, and so on, but ultimately all fear is the ego's fear of death, of annihilation. To the ego, death is always just around the corner. In this mind-identified state, fear of death affects every aspect of your life.

Perjuangan

To know yourself as the Being underneath the thinker, the stillness underneath the mental noise, the love and joy underneath the pain, is freedom, salvation, enlightenment.

Waktu

When you get into your car, shut the door and be there for just half a minute. Breathe, feel the energy inside your body, look around at the sky, the trees. The mind might tell you, 'I don't have time.' But that's the mind talking to you. Even the busiest person has time for 30 seconds of space.

Kepemimpinan

Power over others is weakness disguised as strength.

Keberanian

The more you live in the present moment, the more the fear of death disappears.

Waktu

People look to time in expectation that it will eventually make them happy, but you cannot find true happiness by looking toward the future.

Doa

You can have religion with spirituality. You can also have religion without spirituality.

Doa

Religion and ritual can be vehicles for entering stillness. It says in Psalm 46:10, 'Be still, and know that I am God.' But they are still just vehicles. The Buddha called his teaching a raft: You don't need to carry it around with you after you've crossed the river.

Kepemimpinan

The power for creating a better future is contained in the present moment: You create a good future by creating a good present.

🖼 Gambar

Harapan

People tend to dwell more on negative things than on good things. So the mind then becomes obsessed with negative things, with judgments, guilt and anxiety produced by thoughts about the future and so on.

Kepemimpinan

If small things have the power to disturb you, then who you think you are is exactly that: small.

Waktu

I'm grateful for always this moment, the now, no matter what form it takes.

Waktu

For many people who are so lost in their minds, so much involved in their thought processes, the only moments they have when they are not trapped in that is when they are relating to their animal, their pet.

Keberanian

Boredom, anger, sadness, or fear are not 'yours,' not personal. They are conditions of the human mind. They come and go. Nothing that comes and goes is you.
