.The fewer the facts the stronger the opinion

.Enjoy were your at on the way to where your going...

.Know, that you know, that you know- you will bring forth your fruit(good) in your season.

.The practice of being open requires that we first notice where it is that we are closed. Examine the areas of your life and your thinking that feel constricted, frightened, anxious or angry. It is in those parts of ourselves where we have the opportunity to shift, and to move more fully into trust in God's presence and power in our lives. In those areas of smallness and constriction, ask God, "What would you have me do here?" --Mary Manin Morrissey

.Feel the fear and do it anyway, the fear is only base on previous conditions...

.Don't allow the actions of others determine what you are to do spiritually...

.Never let want you don't want have the last word, especially a lie...(within self)

.A change of life is only a thought away, change your mind and you change your life...

.What we are today comes from thoughts of yesterday, and our present thoughts build our life of tomorrow: our life is the creation of our mind. - Buddha

.All of man's problems stem from his inability to sit alone in a room for any length of time. - Pascal

.Awareness can be called upon to be a companion for our anger. Our awareness of our anger does not suppress it or drive it out. It just looks after it. This is a very important principle. Mindfulness is not a judge. - Thich Nhat Hanh

.We can only know our self by watching, by being aware of our daily acts in situations we face every day. We can only know our self by watching our mind, our feelings, our emotions and understanding them. Slowly slowly the fire of awareness will burn our unconsciousness, will burn what does not belong to us. Our original face will slowly slowly appear.

.To me, awareness is the only morality, the only ethics, the only religion, because out of awareness you cannot do anything wrong. It is always your unconscious mind, which forces you to do wrong things. As awareness grows, slowly slowly, your whole being becomes luminous; there is no dark spot inside you. - Osho

.Breath is the essence of life and of spirituality. In fact, the word spiritual itself is derived from spiritus, which means breath in Latin. Breathing is the link between our bodies and the world outside us. It is not surprising then that awareness of breathing is the basis of meditation in many traditions. - "Chop Wood Carry Water", Rick Fields, Rex Weyler, Rick Ingrasci, and Peggy Taylor

.Breathing into fear and resistance; breathing and consciously surrendering, letting go, and trusting; breathing during times of threatening stress - these are moments of extreme power and transformation

.There can be no happiness if the things we believe in are different from the things we do. - Albert Camus

.All your dreams are unreal even the dream you call the waking state, the only reality is the screen on which they appear. When you identify with the screen and not the pictures, you will know what is real and what is unreal. - Sri Poonjaji

.Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn't you --all of the expectations, all of the beliefs-- and becoming who you are. - Rachel Naomi Remen, M.D.

.Meditation needs to be integrated to your everyday actions, washing your face, eating, walking, working and that sort of things. One must do them with full awareness. Perception into the nature of things comes from doing such things wholeheartedly. - Zhaozhou Congshen

.I do my thing, and you do your thing. I am not in this world to live up to your expectations, and you are not in this world to live up to mine. You are you. And I am I. - Fritz Perls

.The state of no-mind is the state of the divine. God is not a thought but the experience of thoughtlessness. It is not a content in the mind; it is the explosion when the mind is content-less. It is not an object that you can see; it is the very capacity to see. It is not the seen but the seer. It is not like the clouds that gather in the sky, but the sky when there are no clouds. It is that empty sky.

.Go in, enjoy the inner sky. Remember, whatsoever you can see, you are not it. You can see thoughts, then you are not thoughts; you can see your feelings, then you are not your feelings; you can see your dreams, desires, memories, imaginations, projections, then you are not them. Go on eliminating all that you can see. Then one day the tremendous moment arrives, the most significant moment of one's life, when there is nothing left to be rejected. All the seen has disappeared and only the seer is there. That seer is the empty sky.

.To know it is to be fearless, and to know it is to be full of love. To know it is to be God, is to be immortal.

.To oppose something is to maintain it. - Ursula K. LeGuin
The effort to oppose gives strength and durability to that which we would already be rid of. By utilizing our energies to resist that which persists, by engaging our minds to battle those thoughts or feelings we would wish to eradicate, we give them more presence and power. Whereas, we may allow those thoughts and feelings to retreat untouched from the field, if we can watch them without engagement, and so not stir them with the battlements of opposition and allow them to fight on and endure.

.Be soft in your practice.
Think of the method as a fine silvery stream, not a raging waterfall.
Follow the stream, have faith in its course.
It will go it's own way, meandering here, trickling there.
It will find the grooves, the cracks, the crevices.
Just follow it.
Never let it out of your sight.
It will take you. - Sheng-Yen

.Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself and know that everything in this life has a purpose. - Elisabeth K�bler-Ross

.All I can do is engage with complete sincerity. Then whatever happens, there is no regret. - The Dalai Lama

.SIT. REST. WORK. Let these three words sink deep in your heart. Learn to sit silently, restfully, not fighting with yourself, relaxed. Be at rest... and when energy accumulates in you, start being creative. Paint, sing, dance, or do whatsoever you feel like doing to make this world a little more beautiful, a little more warm. - Osho

.If you suffer, you place emphasis on that which is no more than the wind to the reeds. End your addiction to daydreams and illusions.

.Any moment is the best moment and any place, the best place. If only you perceive this wholeheartedly. - Panshan

SO, MONDAY WENT BY, AND THE MAN DIDN'T SEE HIS WIFE. TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY CAME AND WENT WITH THE SAME RESULT. COME THURSDAY, THE SWELLING WENT DOWN A BIT AND HE COULD SEE HER A LITTLE, JUST OUT OF THE CORNER OF HIS LEFT EYE....
