Henry David Thoreau
The obvious is that which is never seen until someone expresses it simply. Khalil Gibran
The truth is, every moment of life is special, and you can be completely open to life most of the time. You have to see the truth to see true life.
“Know thy self,” as Socrates said.
All perspectives are unique.
We do not see things the way they are; we see things the way we are.
You cannot control life, but you can control the way you see life.
Perception and perspective determine how clearly and truly you see life and how fulfilling or unfulfilled life is for you.
Fulfilled: It is the way we feel when our minds are completely open to life; we become “filled” with life. Being filled with life makes you feel the way you want to feel all the time. Fulfillment is true happiness.
The truth: You now know “the truth” part of the truth and life. There are only five fundamental things you need to know, and they are the following:
1. Our true history.
2. You are immortal.
3. Everything will balance.
4. You are a spiritual being.
5. The present is everything.
As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.
Henry David Thoreau
See things like you are seeing them for the first time.
True religion is real living.
Albert Einstein
Behind your thoughts and feelings, my brother, there stands a mighty ruler. An unknown sage - whose name is self. In your body he dwells. There is more reason in your body than in your best wisdom. Friedrich Nietzsche
We need an age of the spirit now. Our spirit must be seen as the more important part of us. Spirit is the real part, the eternal part, what we have always been and always will be; the real us.
It is only when we forget all our learning that we begin to know.
Henry David Thoreau
the goal of your life is to be more aware of it. How can that not be the most important and most worthwhile thing to do?
True happiness is… to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
You should devote your life to life, because life is the only thing that exists.
Every moment in the present is perfect and complete in and of itself.
Getting into life completely should be the obvious goal,
All you need is love, but not carnal love; you need love of the truth and life.
There is no time but the present.
My brain is only a receiver, in the Universe there is a core from which we obtain knowledge, strength and inspiration. I have not penetrated into the secrets of this core, but I know that it exists. Nikola Tesla
The good life is living true life, and that is the simple and absolute truth.
Wherever you look, there is something to see.
The Talmud
Divine awareness, divine love, is mostly just your total attention to life and everything and everyone in it.
Love is just knowing the truth, and being in the present. It is that simple.
Yesterday, we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today, we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.
Khalil Gibran
As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler. Solitude will not be solitude, poverty will not be poverty, nor weakness, weakness. Henry David Thoreau
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with the old nonsense. Ralph Waldo Emerson
