Live this day in all its beauty, in all its joy, in all its pain, agony, ecstasy. Live it in its totality – in its darkness, in its light. – Osho
There was never a time when your life was not now, nor will there ever be
Meditation is a byproduct of joy, and joy is a byproduct of meditation
Binding together people who never knew each other
What an astonishing thing a book is. One glance at it and you’re inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly and silently inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people who never knew each other, citizens of distant epochs. Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic. – Carl Sagan
The journey for each of us begin here
That’s here, that’s home, that’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “superstar”, every “supreme leader”, every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam. – Carl Sagan “Pale blue dot” 1994
