Let be

To let go does not mean to get rid of.

To let go means to let be.

When we let be with compassion, things come and go on their own

Jack Kornfield

Sunday Quote: Aliveness in life

I learned that every mortal still tastes death

But only some will taste life

Rumi

Impermanent

See and realize
that this world
is not permanent.
Neither late nor early flowers
will remain.

Ryokan

In our minds

We don’t really hear what people say,

We imagine what they mean

Byron Katie

From the heart

You are what your deep, driving desire is.

As is your desire, so is your intention.

As is your intention, so is your will.

As is your will, so is your deed

As your deed is, so is your destiny,

Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, Hindu Scriptures, 7th-6th century BCE.

Thoughts

Each thought creates according to its own nature.

Remember that the law works at all times and that you are always demonstrating according to the kind of thoughts you habitually entertain. Therefore, start now to think only those thoughts that will bring you health and happiness.

Paramahansa Yogananda, 1893 – 1952
