One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been to the Himalayas in Rishikesh in a 🌅

Teach, Learn, Share

"The art of life is to stay wide open and be vulnerable, yet at the same time to sit with the mystery and the awe and with the unbearable pain — to just be with it all. I’ve been growing into that wonderful catchphrase, “be here now,” for the last forty years. Here and now has within it a great richness that is just enough.

If somebody asks me, “Ram Dass, are you happy?” I stop and look inside. “Yes, I’m happy.” “Ram Dass, are you sad?” “Yes, I’m sad.” Answering those questions, I realize that all of those feelings are present. Imagine the richness of a moment in which everything is present: the pain of a broken heart, the joy of a new mother holding her baby, the exquisiteness of a rose in bloom, the grief of losing a loved one. This moment has all of that. It is just living truth.

Excerpt from Ram Dass’ book Polishing the Mirror: How to Live from Your Spiritual Heart

"With all the strength that you use to hold on to all of that shit that brings you suffering, you can use the same strength(turn it into courage) loosen your grip and just let go."

Leave yourself behind and never look back!

“No one can build you the bridge on which you, and only you, must cross the river of life. There may be countless trails and bridges and demigods who would gladly carry you across; but only at the price of pawning and forgoing yourself. There is only one path in the world that none can walk but you. Where does it lead? Don’t ask, walk!” - The Struggle Continues

YOU ARE A PSYCHIC GARDENER.

Each day water the flowers of your dreams by the nourishing waters of your devoted attention. Cultivate instead of chasing the rush of accelerated growth. Let patience make sweet love to you until your tensions have melted and joined the forever of flow. Undo and unknow until you have become a disciple of the trees, a devotee of the moonlight, a divine dreamer and follower of the peace of the wild...

Your thoughts are such sacred creations. Care and tend to them like newborn children. Think them with peace, lucid love and robust intention. Slow the mind to drop into the Heart and there bridle and unlock the greater mind. Attend each day to those great thought forms, writing them, etching them slowly and masterfully unto the pulsing ethers. Walk your psychic garden with mindful footsteps, adoring the beauty of your inner-world and shaping it into evermore loveliness.

It is time to reclaim control of the higher dimensions and populate them with golden thought forms. The air pollution we witness in the world is but a reflection of a more deeply rooted psychic pollution of higher realms, invaded by malevolent forces which have then cut us off from our mysticisms through often religious empires and their tyrannical, fanatical persecution crusades. No more. It is time to unleash our divinity as emboldened creativity. For all to become Buddhas and use the mind for the most noble and magical purposes. Let us re-enchant the world by taking back control of our divine minds and washing them pure together in meditation merriment. Let us change the world by this essential, subtle work and awe at the truth of magic...
