  • Meditation

    Though the mind often asks for what is visible or material, its needs are deeper and cannot be met by anything superficial or short term.

    Meditation leads to a meeting point with all that is true and eternal.
  • Resent Not

    There are no justified resentments. To resent someone is to fall under the illusion that they are the cause of our suffering. No one can die from a snake bite. It's the poison that kills them. You may receive the poison of another’s words, or even just in a glance, but you don’t have to absorb it or allow it free passage through the veins of your consciousness.

    The consequence of not absorbing the poison of others is you never experience enmity towards others. And people notice when you...  more
  • Beauty of the Sky ...

    Leave worries aside and you will be surprised by the beauty of the sky and the colour of flowers, of the freshness of the breeze and the generosity of the sun. You will feel you are part of creation, and life will start to make sense.

    The greatest wealth is to appreciate what we have and what we are.
  • Calming The Mind

    Don't give your mind permission to get disturbed. A disturbed mind is easily influenced. This will cost you your peace. Learn to maintain your peace by freeing yourself from attachments. Competing or comparing yourself with others will not allow you to focus inwards. An inner focus allows you to keep your eye on your higher self. Remember your original nature. Then it becomes easy to recognise useless thoughts and replace them with a spiritual perspective. A calm mind is not just peaceful, it...  more
  • Forgive And Forget

    To forgive and forget is to reflect love. Situations pass, they cease to exist, but they continue to be alive in the mind. Open your heart and be generous, free yourself from that sorrow, forgive and forget and you will live every moment in peace.
  • The Switch

    In the vast expanse of our minds, the simple act of keeping the 'switch of awareness' perpetually on serves as a powerful conduit to maintaining a resilient and positive outlook. This metaphorical switch, when flipped on, illuminates the darker recesses of our thoughts, enabling us to see with clarity and perspective. It's about being mindful and present in the moment, fully engaged with our thoughts, feelings, and the world around us.

    By fostering this heightened state of awareness, we...  more
  • Being Comes Before Doing

    People spend most of their lives running after things, doing things. They forget that being comes before doing. Those who remember this secret make an effort to "be" and discover that when they stop and observe, life helps and brings whatever is needed.

    Learning to be is learning to be at peace. It is our most fundamental nature.
  • Determined Thoughts

    Determined thoughts disperse the clouds of negative situations. A lot of negative situations are bound to come our way, resulting in grief, pain and disappointment. At the time, such difficulties feels insurmountable and seem to last forever. I need to recognise that the difficulties I face are like passing clouds.

    These clouds gather around me at times, are only temporary - sooner or later they will fade away.

    Understanding that no problem lasts forever will help me develop the determination...  more

  • The Illusion Of Dependency

    The more a person depends on a pattern of thinking, a particular person or a particular role, the more there is fear of loss. The security created by dependence is illusion. The reality of life is that anything external to ourselves can, at any time, vanish. What will we do then? Where is our life's anchor? If it is not within, we will suffer.
  • Thoughts, Words and Actions

    The gap between what you say and what you do, between what you promise and what you deliver, is like a drain in the road. The drain is where water escapes, just as your power will seep away if there is a difference between your words and your actions.
  • Thinking Too Much

    The biggest disease of the mind is over-thinking, especially too much thinking about others: What they did, what they should do, what they should have done, what they said, what you wished they had said, why they spoke at all. All of these rob the mind of its inherent serenity.

    Thinking too much is like eating too much. The heaviness makes it impossible to remain light and flexible. We get stuck on little things and gradually the little things become huge things which we cannot shake off....  more
  • Constant Renewal

    The law of life is constant renewal. So, let everything flow - air, water, light, thoughts and feelings.

    Go beyond everything that is old in this world: old ideas; old concepts; old methods.

    Look with new eyes and do things differently based on inner values.
