Thought for the day........ "Nothing can disturb you unless you make it personal. The person always perceives personally, whereas Presence only perceives. Watch but don't panic or identify. Remember: you are the formless being. Remain here - timeless, empty and free!" Mooji

Thought for the day........ "When you call yourself an Indian or a Muslim or a Christian or a European, or anything else, you are being violent. Do you see why it is violent? It is because you are separating yourself from the rest of mankind. When you separate yourself by belief, by nationality, by tradition, it breeds violence. So a man who is seeking to understand violence does not belong to any country, to any religion, to any political party or partial system; he is concerned with the total understanding of mankind." J. Krishnamurthi

Thought for the day....... "The most sensible way to look after our own self-interest, to find freedom and be happy, is not to directly pursue these things but to give priority to the interests of others. Help others to become free of their fear and pain. Contribute to their happiness. Its all really very simple. You don't have to choose between being kind to yourself and others. Its one and the same." Piero Ferrucci

Thought for the day....... "The closer we get to uncovering ourselves, the more difficult it becomes to face the truth. Sooner or later we stop running, out of sheer exhaustion and desperation, and turn around to face our image. The pain that we go through during this revelation is negligible compared to the state of grace that we enter into when we have finally moved on." Dr. Christiane Northrup

4-4 Thought for the day....... "If I had a formula for bypassing trouble, I would not pass it round. Trouble creates a capacity to handle it.

Thought for the day....... "After sleeping through a hundred million centuries we have finally opened our eyes on a sumptuous planet, sparkling with color, bountiful with life. Within decades we must close our eyes again. Isn't it a noble, an enlightened way of spending our brief time in the sun, to work at understanding the universe and how we have come to wake up in it? This is how I answer when I am asked -- as I am surprisingly often -- why I bother to get up in the mornings." Richard Dawkins
