A Major Peace obstacle!

The ego is an a by-product of living with others. If a child lives totally alone, he will never come to grow an ego. But that is not going to help. He will remain like an animal. That doesn't mean that he will come to know the real self, no. The real can be known only through the false, so the ego is a must. One has to pass through it. It is a discipline. The real can be known only through the illusion. You cannot know the truth directly. First… Continue

listening inside...

There is something in every one of you that waits and listens for the sound of the genuine in yourself.” Howard Thurman

Perhaps the most challenging listening that we attempt in this life is learning to listen to ourselves. We know our inner voice well in childhood, but often lose touch with it as the opinions of others dominate our life in adolescence. It is tragic really, how we are trained to not listen to ourselves, to believe that other people know what we want to become or do… Continue

What If

What would it take for the world to listen,

to hear the truth of their existence and life;

What would it be if we were to forgo,

The pain, worry and strife?

What would it be if we were all ready

to change the tide in which we live;

Where would we be if we had decided

to stop taking, live simple and give?

Where could we go if we all decided

that it wasn't about what we all had;

Neither home, work or our… Continue

If I could fly my friend him ...

If I could fly like my friend,

Him

And survey man’s dominion

I would feel a oneness

A harmony

And empathy

With life and mother nature;

Away from man’s

Demonic reasoning

And death deemed just

And dehumanizing

And I could tell my friend

Him

I see the light, and feel the breeze

Of freedom in thought

And fancy

Of trainers with suits

And odd socks and caps

And tongue of many languages

And as we… Continue

Listen To, "Thinkingness And The Fastest Way To Enlightenment", By Dr. David R. Hawkins

The enlightenment principles are easy to learn and very easy to apply in all your daily life, even without effort, (Just by focusing attention on them). This process allows you control of the mind instead of being under mind control, so enlightenment can happen naturally and quickly, by finally becoming unblocked. Like a cork no longer held under water, when resistance ends, it rises to the surface and equalizes in alignment with it's own nature, (which is lightness compared to the density… Continue

Morning thought

Many of us are not capable of releasing the past, of releasing the suffering of the past. We want to cling to our own suffering. But the Buddha said very clearly, do not cling to the past, the past is already gone. Do not wait for future, the future is not yet there. The wise people establish themselves in the present moment and they practice living deeply in the present moment. That is our practice. By living deeply in the present moment we can understand the past better and we can prepare for… Continue
