Forgiving People…

“That which I do not forgive in you, lies unforgiven within myself.” ~Buddhist Proverb

Make love of yourself perfect…

You are perfect, only you don’t know it.
Learn to know yourself and you will discover wonders.
All you need is already within you, only you must approach yourself with reverence and love.
Self-condemnation and self-distrust are grievous errors.

Your constant flight from pain and search for pleasure is a sign of the love you bear for yourself;
all I plead with you is this: make love of yourself perfect.
Deny yourself nothing – give yourself infinity and eternity and discover that
you do not need them; you are beyond.

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

It’s Not Personal, Really: How to Rise Above the Negativity of Others

How do you react when a friend’s bluntness hurts your feelings, or when a disgruntled boss speaks to you in a rude manner?

For many of us, we often can’t help but take others negative reactions to us personally – leaving us feeling a mixture of confusion, resentment, or that we’re being misunderstood.

However, in truth, this is where we’re often the ones misreading the situation.

In this interview with Oprah, don Miguel Ruiz, acclaimed author of The Four Agreements, discusses the second “Agreement” from his book – how to not take things personally.

In the video, he reminds us that we’re not always the “secondary character” of everyone’s world (something we often forget!), and that we can’t control or change people (and nor should we try).

Are You Living by the Real Secret to a Joyful Life?

“There is no future, there is no past. I live this moment as my last. There’s only us. There’s only this. Forget regret, or life is yours to miss. No other road. No other way. No day but today.” – Jonathan Larson

When our minds become stuck in the past, or are anxiously projecting into the future, we’re missing the experience of the current reality that exists: the present moment.

In this short video, the late Alan Watts reminds us that happiness can only exist in this very moment – so cherish it.

Timeless wisdom that never fails to resonate, wouldn’t you agree?
