“The human mind, once stretched by a new idea, never returns to its original dimensions.”

“Be mindful, be compassionate, and nurture the circumstances that find you in this good time so it will last longer.”

Your current life’s experience, right at this very moment, is majorly a product of the seeds that have been planted in your mind. Make sure that you are nourishing them, daily. Creating within your mind the most beautiful of thoughts, and bringing them to life with love and care.

“Remember that you ought to behave in life as you would at a banquet. As something is being passed around it comes to you; stretch out your hand, take a portion of it politely. It passes on; do not detain it. Or it has not come to you yet; do not project your desire to meet it, but wait until it comes in front of you.”

“Never have I felt so deeply at one and the same time so detached from myself and so present in the world.”

“We spend a lot of time looking for happiness when the world right around us is full of wonder. To be alive and walk on the Earth is a miracle, and yet most of us are running as if there were some better place to get to. There is beauty calling to us every day, every hour, but we are rarely in a position to listen. The basic condition for us to be able to hear the call of beauty and respond to it is silence. If we don’t have silence in ourselves - if our mind, our body, are full of noise - then we can’t hear beauty’s call.”

“Being turned down into poetry is the most etiquette form of love.”

“Even if you’re going to live three thousand more years, or ten times that, remember: you cannot lose another life than the one you’re living now, or live another one than the one you’re losing. The longest amounts to the same as the shortest. The present is the same for everyone; its loss is the same for everyone; and it should be clear that a brief instant is all that is lost. For you can’t lose either the past or the future; how could you lose what you don’t have?”

“Once we open our eyes to the infinite magic that the universe has in abundance, we are sure to be enthralled by what we see and this miraculous creation gets us closer to our dreams and to the world as a whole.”
