how can I be a 'hippie'?

If you want to be free, Get to know your real self. It has no form, no appearance, No root, no basis, no abode, But is lively and buoyant. It responds with versatile facility, But its function cannot be located. Therefore when you look for it, You become further from it; When you seek it, You turn away from it all the more.

One can still be a hippie today, you just need the right ingredients: peace, love, understanding, tolerance, simplicity and a desire to be and act differently than all the rest.

Most humans are never fully present in the now, because unconsciously they believe that the next moment must be more important than this one. But then you miss your whole life, which is never not now.
