The whole play of Existence is so absurd and beautiful that laughter can be the only response to it. Only laughter can be the real attitude, gratitude.
Discover the ‘I Am’
The beauty you seek lies within the innermost feeling of “I Am.” Do not be fooled by seeking for certainty, beauty, validation and strength in the outer world, for there is no outer world. Once you realize the I Am is all there is, you will also realize that the source of everything is always here and now and it is synonymous with ‘you.’ – Bentinho Massaro
Life is the universe experiencing itself, in endless variety
I used to be a guy who was experiencing the world and now I feel like the world and the universe experiencing a guy, so there’s kind of been a shift.
Welcome to the present moment. Here. Now. The only moment there ever is.
If the only prayer you say in your whole life is “Thank you”, that would suffice. Becoming friendly with the present moment is the only spiritual practice you really need.
When you are feel deep acceptance of yourself as you are, wisdom starts happening
Each day brings its own problems, its own challenges and each moment brings its own questions. And if you have ready-made answers in your head you will not be able even to listen to the question. You will be so full of your answer, you will be incapable of listening. You will not be available. – Osho
Simplicity
The secret to living well and longer is: eat half, walk double, laugh triple, and love without measure.
Existence is relationship
All forms of life and being are simply variations on a single theme: we are all in fact one being doing the same things in as many different ways as possible. – Alan Watts in “The Joyous Cosmology”
If you want success, ensure that you are not the obstacle to it
In mediocrity, there is comfort, but no joy. In going beyond your limits, there is joy, but maybe no comfort. You have to choose. – Sadhguru
Every single thing in this world exists only in relation to the whole system
You, in your fundamental existence, are the total energy that constitutes this universe, playing that it’s you. Playing that it’s this particular organism, and even playing that it’s this particular person, because the fundamental game of the world is a game of hide and seek. That is to say that the colossal reality — the energy that is everything, that is a unitary energy, that is ONE, plays at being many. – Alan Watts speaking in audio “The Middle Way”
Realize the abundance of power within
Growth happens effortlessly once the willingness to face the self directly has become greater than the attachment to the comfort of avoiding. – Bentinho Massaro
