People have not been taught the art of living beautifully, the art of being graceful, the art of being silent, meditative. Instead of teaching these authentic realities, which can be done right now, their minds were taken away from the present to some unknown future – nobody knows whether it exists or not. – Osho
The taste of your being is truth. The beauty of your being is the beauty of existence. The silence of your being is the language that existence understands. And just to be settled in being, you have come home. At ease, you sit silently within yourself. A great hidden splendour is revealed to you: you are not separate from reality, you are one with it. The trees and the moon and the stars and the mountains are all part of one organic unity – you are part of this existence. – Osho
Meditation happens whenever you can find the experience for just being and drop all doing. Thinking is also doing, concentration is also doing, contemplation is also doing. If even for a single moment you are not doing anything and you simply are, just being, that’s what meditation is.
Forget the past, forget the future, this moment is all. This moment has to become your prayer, your love, your life, your death, your everything. This is it. – Osho
From one point of view the present is shorter than a microsecond. From another, it embraces all eternity. – Alan Watts
The most enduring power happens from within. Life happens from within. How aware you are of it, decides the quality of your body, your mind, and your experience of life. – Sadhguru
Be as you are in whatever circumstances, just always Be. It doesn’t need any practice. Whatever you get by practice you will lose, but Being will never be lost because you will not get it by any experience or practice. It simply is, Simply Be.
Don’t stir your mind in Being, don’t think and don’t make effort. I will tell you how to be Being itself. No effort, no thinking. Avoid thinking and avoid not thinking. What is between these two? – Papaji
At every moment, we are in fact a different image. A different entity when mirroring, when hungry, when reading this. Every second we become different persons as we go through different states. All this complex and almost schizophrenic subconscious behaviour is the result of a vastly parallel distributed system in our brain.
There is no specific center of consciousness, the appearance of a unity is, in fact, each of these separate circuits enabled and being expressed at one particular moment in time. – Joseph E LeDoux
You are the unchangeable awareness in which all activity takes place. Always rest in peace. You are eternal Being, unbounded and undivided. Just keep quiet. All is well. Keep quiet here and now. Do not entertain any notions that you are in trouble. Be kind to yourself. Open to your heart and simply be. – Eckhart Tolle
Suffering only exists because you think something is happening that shouldn’t be. – Deepak Chopras
