“Most people believe the mind to be a mirror, more or less accurately reflecting the world outside them, not realizing on the contrary that the mind is itself the principal element of creation.”
― Rabindranath Tagore
This miracle of life had not taken her first flight yet, she had just emerged out of the cocoon just a few hours ago. She explored the world with new eyes stretching her wings over and over guided by instinct until she stood at the edge and took a leap of faith. With her wings spread wide open she flew away gracefully ready to fulfill her destiny.
Life evolves naturally without effort but we often hold on to old preconceived ideas and fears that limit our true potential and negate us from experiencing life completely.
Stretch your mind with new ideas, grow out of your comfort zone and emerge out of the cocoon that binds you. Open your wings and take a leap of faith into the unknown. Never forget that Love is our true essence and the guiding light that will shine upon your path eternally. Fill your heart with wonder and explore the endless possibility of your Dreams.
Show your beautiful colors to the world because you are unique, you are beautiful. You are a miracle of life.
Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.
The word “surrender” is often interpreted as giving up, as weakness, as admitting defeat. Although this is one way to use the word, we will use it in a different way. Surrendering means letting go of your resistance to the total openness of who you are. It means giving up the tension of the little vortex you believe yourself to be and realizing the deep power of the ocean you truly are. It means to open with no boundaries, emotional or physical, so you ease wide beyond any limiting sense of self you might have.
– David Deida
The greatest achievement is selflessness.
The greatest worth is self-mastery.
The greatest quality is seeking to serve others.
The greatest precept is continual awareness.
The greatest medicine is the emptiness of everything.
The greatest action is not conforming with the worlds ways.
The greatest magic is transmuting the passions.
The greatest generosity is non-attachment.
The greatest goodness is a peaceful mind.
The greatest patience is humility.
The greatest effort is not concerned with results.
The greatest meditation is a mind that lets go.
The greatest wisdom is seeing through appearances.
— Atisha
All at once an emanation of the brightest hues arises, delights and embraces you with joy and laughter. The steady rhythms of millions of heartbeats gather in peace and unite as One heartbeat in the sweetest harmony. Sacred sandalwood incense billows and lingers to enhance awareness and togetherness. OM resounds, surrounds and comforts the pulse, coaxing it to a unified state of stillness. Like tiny diamonds, the dew of a fine mist collects on a honeycomb and waits, wanting to be reflected in a Holy light. A fragrant blanket of the most beautiful flowers beckons and restores a weary pilgrim in deep sleep as glittering seabeams caress the languid curves of the shoreline over and over and over again to echo a heartbeat.
Echoing your heart.
