About me:

I practice Buddhism but draw inspiration from Hindu Texts.. I dont believe in a RIGHT or WRONG religion/philosophy. Everything has something to contribute! It really depends on our mind and how we wish to receive it! I have love for ALL religions. Every religion/philosophy has some great input for the world just as some of them have negative input. My goal in human life is to attain the highest form of consciousness and help others attain this. I believe if everyone loved (meaningfully from the heart with compassion, and not materialistically) our world would be harmonious and we would all be free from suffering!






Non-resistance means that the battle of souls is won / Thích Quảng Đức was protesting the persecution of Buddhists by South Vietnam's Ngô Đình Diệm administration and burned himself to death at a busy Saigon road intersection on June 11, 1963.
The heart of Thích Quảng Đức remained intact and refusing to burn.












NAMASTE

"That which is of the Divine in me greets that which is of the Divine in you!"

Who I'd like to meet:

EGO.... LET IT GO!
"Breaking away from the selfish ego of I, Me, and Mine, takes a person from death to immortality", says Krishna (2:71-72) Bhagavad Gita.

According to the ancient Vedic tradition, the confinement of our mindset to physical existence limits our true potential, especially when a leader confines himself to his physical existence defined only in terms of I, Me, and Mine. This confinement dilutes the true potential of leadership.
A leader's legacy is enhanced when he or she leads with the organization's interests foremost in mind. A leader who works toward the purpose of the common good is remembered even after his or her death, becoming immortal through the legacy left behind!


The Mind (The Dhammapada)

Realizing that this body is (as fragile) as a jar, establishing this mind (as firm) as a (fortified) city, he should attack Mara with the weapon of wisdom. He should guard his conquest and be without attachment.

Whatever (harm) a foe may do to a foe, or a hater to a hater, an ill-directed mind can do one far greater (harm).



Anger (The Dhammapada)

Put anger away, abandon pride, overcome every attachment, cling not to Mind and Body and thus be free from sorrow.

Conquer the anger man by love; conquer the ill-natured man by goodness; conquer the miser with generosity; conquer the liar with truth.

One should speak the truth, and not yield to anger; when asked one should give though there be litter; by these three things one may go to the presence of the devas, the gods.

    YOU ARE LOVED


    To be who you are is to be enough.
    To share who you are is to share enough.
    To do what you love is to do enough.


    There is no race to win and nothing to be proven,
    Only dreams to be nurtured, a self to be expressed,
    And love to be shared.


    Never doubt your worth,
    And always know, without any doubt,
    That you are truly valued and deeply loved.

    The meaning of happiness is the meaning of life.

    And so it isn’t just the meaning of happiness in meditation, it is also the meaning of happiness in anything you are doing.

    Because even sometimes your body gives you orders in saying, ‘Now you have to sleep’ or ‘Now you have to be sick’ or ‘Now you can’t do what you want’.

    So it doesn’t matter whether there is something else in life which stops you doing what you want to do.

    That is like the orders of life, and you have a chance there to actually let go, to surrender to the moment when you can’t change things, and be content.

    And that’s one of the wonderful things which I find in Buddhist practice.

    You can be happy, no matter what’s going on.

    Here, beside a clear deep lake,
    You live accompanied by clouds.

    Soft through the pines the moon arrives
    To be your own pure-hearted friend.

    You rest under thatch in the shadow of your flowers,
    Your dewy herbs flourish in their bed of moss.

    Let me leave the world.

    Let me alight, like you,
    On your western mountain with
    Phoenixes and cranes.

    May all your days be Blessed
    with Love and Light

    Crows pluck crimson leaves
    from birdbath to splash amid
    blue sky reflections

    Indian Summer
    burnishes bright leaf colors
    into pastel hues

    Autumn: my yearly
    clash with conflicting feelings
    of joy and despair


    may these beautiful fall days warm your heart

    “What a radical concept! Everyone having loving kindness!
    With practice, a reality is created somewhere having that very consciousness of loving kindness.
    Such practice also draws one to those planes of consciousness.”

    from the Kuan Yin Scriptures

    much peace and love

    "Take life easily,
    lovingly, playfully, non-seriously.
    Seriousness is a disease,
    the greatest disease of the soul,
    and playfulness the greatest health."
    Osho

    “Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.”

    “Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself.
    To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night."

    " To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving.”
    ~Kahlil Gibran



    much peace and love
