How many times has your imagination disturbed a perfectly peaceful moment? How many times have your cravings blocked you from fully enjoying the abundance in front of you?

is easier to let go of someone’s opinion of you when you understand that others see you through a combination of their past conditioning and their current emotional state without realizing it, they see themselves first, and through that lens they get an unclear picture of you

before you can see someone else clearly you must first be aware that your mind will impulsively filter what it sees through the lens of your past conditioning and present emotional state

the happiest people, the ones who have successfully purified their minds of all conditioning and craving, tend to have such a strong compassion and understanding of love that their lives naturally focus on giving to others. in this giving and clarity of mind they find happiness.

there may be times when you feel like a lot of what you’ve understood no longer makes sense. this might make you feel as though you have regressed, but it is actually a sign that you are opening new space for deeper wisdom and greater perception. when your previous understandings disintegrate, they are not always immediately replaced by better or deeper understandings. when you take your growth seriously, you will often find yourself in this in-between state; it is okay to live without clear answers. growth is not about forcing understanding; it is about allowing it

the bravery to fulfill your aspirations the openness that grows friendships the awareness to follow your intuition the intelligence to not repeat the past

It is easier to step away from an argument and remain calm when you realize they are not picking a fight with you. They are actually fighting themselves.

who i am is always changing, not because i am being fake but because i am always open to growth and transformation

your growth in the midst of a
big leap forward; hold steady
and allow yourself to bloom.

sometimes you need to move slowly so you can then move powerfully

"Instead of saying, "I am sad," reframe it to "Sadness has temporarily appeared" or "Sadness is passing through me.

your initial reaction is usually your past trying to impose itself on your present

"they asked her,

"how do you get through tough moments?"

she answered,

"do not trust the way you see yourself when your mind is turbulent, and remember that even pain is temporary. honour your boundaries, treat yourself gently, let go of perfection, and feel your emotions without letting them control you. you have enough experience to face the storm and evolve from it.
