Consciousness

If you set out to meditate, it will not be meditation. If you set out to be good, goodness will never flower. If you cultivate humility, it ceases to be. Meditation is like the breeze that comes in when you leave the window open; but if you deliberately keep it open, deliberately invite it to come, it will never appear.

“Whatever you think you are, that’s not it.” ― Adyashanti

“Spirituality is about celebration of the uniqueness of who you are and recognizing our underlying shared essence.” – Jeff Foster

Equality or oneness is the attribute of the Ultimate. It is established only when you reach the Ultimate, transcending body, senses and mind. - Atmananda Krishna Menon

A mind that is full of conclusions is a dead mind, it is not a living mind. A living mind is a free mind, learning, never concluding. - Krishnamurti

“Boredom, rooted in a fundamental discomfort with the self, is one of the least tolerable mental states.” ― Gabor Maté

“To be yourself requires extraordinary intelligence. You are blessed with that intelligence; nobody need give it to you; nobody can take it away from you. He who lets that express itself in its own way is a "Natural Man".” ― U.G. Krishnamurti

Your own self-realization is the greatest service you can render to the world - Ramana Maharshi

"Everything is one" And suddenly a new door opens, a new perception is achieved. Suddenly the mundane world of division, of separation has disappeared, and a different world of Oneness comes before you. Everything loses its boundary; everything is with others, is not divided but One. - Osho

"The beauty of the unconscious is that it never lies because it has never been part of civilization. It has never been educated, it has never been turned into a hypocrite; it is very simple, very innocent. It simply says whatsoever is the case." - Osho

“You are the unchanging manifesting as the changefulness” ― Mooji

"What lies behind us & What lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." - Buddha

A catharsis is needed because your heart is so suppressed, due to your brain. Your brain has taken over so much of your being that it dominates you... Then catharsis is needed to unburden the heart, to throw off suppressions, to make the heart open. If the heart becomes light and unburdened then the center of consciousness is pushed still lower; it comes to the navel. The navel is the source of vitality. - Osho
