Let the mind come, but don't `have' a mind.

Mind helps you to exercise your wisdom, your own power of discernment to stay as you are and not divide yourself. When this is appreciated, you will stop fearing the mind. Gradually, as understanding deepens to reveal the Self as one's own reality, the mind becomes a friend and servant.

~ Mooji

quotes

"Everybody lives in his own world. Not all the worlds are equally good or bad. The mind that projects the world, colors it its own way. When you meet a man he is a stranger. When you marry him, he becomes your own self. When you quarrel, he becomes your enemy. It is your mind's attitude that determines what he is to you."

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj.

spiritual quotes

 

शिव

कोऽहं प्रश्नोत्तरंलुब्धम्

आत्मानं पश्य मानव।

सोऽहं भावं दृढीकर्तुम्

आह्वयस्व सदा शिव॥

मी कोण? या प्रश्नाचे सम्यक् उत्तर मिळविण्यासाठी मानवा तू अंतर्मुख हो, आत्मनिरीक्षण कर. मी तोच आहे, हा भाव दृढ करण्यासाठी तू नेहमीच "शिव शिव" म्हणत जा.

quotes

Our existence is trapped between desire and fear, in the context of time.

The core of our problem, then, lies in thought, which is the creator of time.

 

 

*************

 

 

Human beings, actually have no more independence or autonomy, in living their lives, than do the characters in a dream.

Neither do they have anything to do with the creation of the dream or anything in it.

They are simply being lived, along with everything else in this living dream, of the manifested universe.

The entire dream is unreal.

Only the dreamer is real and that is Consciousness itself.
