“Finding the center of strength within ourselves is in the long run the best contribution we can make to our fellow men. ... One person with indigenous inner strength exercises a great calming effect on panic among people around him. This is what our society needs — not new ideas and inventions; important as these are, and not geniuses and supermen, but persons who can "be", that is, persons who have a center of strength within themselves.” ⠀ ⠀ Rollo May, Man's Search for Himself⠀ .⠀ .⠀ image via thesoundandthelight.tumblr.com . . . #peace #strength #calm #innerstrength #be #yoga #liveinyoga #yogalife #positivevibes #positivity #serenity #power #yogajivana108 #yogamelbourne #yogaaustralia #yogaeverywhere

“Your duty is to be and not to be this or that. 'I am that I am' sums up the whole truth. The method is summed up in the words 'Be still'. What does stillness mean? It means destroy yourself.

What can be easier than that?” ⠀ .⠀ Ramana Maharshi⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ "Patricia" by Philippe Morel. ⠀ Galerie Manzel⠀ www.manzel.com⠀ #still #stillness #truth #ego #self #atma #authentic #surrender #yield #egoism #ahamkara #attachment #yoga #thisisyoga #yogalife #yogalove #yogaeverywhere #liveinyoga #yogajivana108 #yoganorthcote #northcote #yogamelbourne #yogaaustralia
